Lubricate the die sets

Introduction
The die sets have a life expectancy of approximately 500,000 punched sheets. However,
when you lubricate the die sets on a regular basis, the life expectancy can increase. You
must regularly lubricate the following parts.
• The punch pins.
• The shoulder bolts and springs.
• The felt oil pad, if applicable.
Some die sets have a felt oil pad that must be lubricated. The following table indicates
which types of die set do or do not have a felt oil pad.

When to do
• Lubricate the punch pins every 50,000 punched sheets.
• Lubricate the shoulder bolts and springs every 200,000 punched sheets.
Required tool
• Use a high quality machine oil to lubricate the die sets.
Caution:
Do not use an aerosol (spray) type of oil. This type of oil leaves a sticky residue on the
pins and attracts paper dust.
