Lubrication
Since all bearings are sealed and permanently
lubricated, leave them alone until they need to
be replaced. Do not lubricate them. However,
the Model W1692 15" Planer does need
lubrication in the following listed places,
depending on heavy use and the shop
environment:
•
Columns and Lead Screws
— Lubricate
columns as needed with light oil to prevent
rust, and lubricate the four leadscrews
once with a general purpose grease to
prevent rust and maintain smooth
operation.
•
Worm Gear
— Under heavy use, inspect
the worm gear yearly and lubricate when
needed. The worm gear box will need to
be removed to perform the inspection. See
Figure 34
.
•
Chain
— Inspect the table height
adjustment chain periodically and lubricate
as needed. Use high quality chain lubricant
for best results.
•
Gear Box
— Drain the gear box after the
first 30 hours of operation.
Figure 35
shows the gear box drain and fill plugs.
Refill with 80-90w gear oil. The oil level
should reach the top of the filler plug port.
After the initial change, inspect fluid levels
periodically and change yearly.
If your
planer receives heavy use, change the gear
oil more frequently.
•
Drive Chains
— Inspect and lubricate the
drive chains every six months. Check the
sprockets, the chain, and the master links
during inspection. Use a general purpose
grease to lubricate the chain.
•
Feed Rollers
— The feed roller plugs have
holes to accept oil. Make sure that no dust
is in the oil holes and lubricate feed roller
plugs with two drops of oil before daily
start-up.
Figure 36
shows the lubrication
points for the feed rollers. DO NOT
lubricate more than two drops or the
excess oil will end up on the floor.
