Grease the Turntable Rotation
Bearing and Rotate Gear
Yearly application of lubrication to the turntable
bearing and rotate gear is essential to good
machine performance and service life. Continued
use of an improperly greased bearing and gear will
result in component damage.

bearing. Rotate the turntable in increments
of 4 to 5 inches (10 to 13 cm) at a time and
repeat this step until the entire bearing has
been greased.
