Lube Amount ..................................... 1–2 Pumps
Lubrication Frequency ........... 8 hrs. of Operation
Proper lubrication of the handwheel ball oilers
shown in Figure 49 is done with a pump-type oil
can with a tip wide enough to seal the ball oil inlet
(see Page 28 for offerings from Grizzly). We do
not recommend using metal needle or lance-type
tips, as they can push the ball too far into the oiler,
break the spring seat, and lodge the ball in the oil
galley.

Disconnect one side of the column way cover,
then move the table toward the front of the mill
and headstock upward to access the entire length
of the table and column ways for this procedure
(see Figures 50 and 51).
Note: Each sliding component has two dovetail
ways—one on each side of the component.
Figure 50. Location of table and column ways.
Clean the ways with mineral spirits and shop
rags. When dry, apply a liberal coat of lubricant,
then move the sliding components through their
full path a few times to evenly distribute the oil.
Re-install the column way cover.

To lubricate ball oiler:
1. Push tip of oil can nozzle against ball oiler
and pump oil can once or twice.
Note: If you see sludge and contaminants
coming out of the lubrication area, continue
pumping oil can until the oil runs clear.
2. When finished, wipe away any excess oil.
