Trunnions
Models G0513 and G0513A40 have steel trun-
nions that can be cleaned and lubricated with
NLGI#2 grease or equivalent along the sliding
surfaces (see Figure 101) when necessary.

(G0513 & G0513A40 only).
Models G0513X2 and G0513X2BF have cast iron
trunnions that produce a fine graphite powder
over time that acts as a lubricant. We recom-
mend not adding lubricant to the trunnions which
could make a sticky substance that would prevent
smooth movement.
