The recommended lubrication for roller chains
used in medium to slow speed operation is to
simply wipe the chain clean. When there is an
appreciable buildup of dust, dirt or wood
shavings, use an oil cloth but never pour the oil
directly on the chain. Over-oiling defeats the
purpose of the lubrication, since it tends to invite
the collection of dust, shavings, etc. and works
into members of the chain. This hastens wear
and leads to premature replacement.
The bearings on the cutterhead and feed rollers
are factory lubricated and sealed. They require
no further attention.
