Lubrication
Use the information in the charts below as a daily
guide for lubrication tasks. We recommend using
Grizzly Model T23962 or T23963 lubricants (see
Page 57) for most of the lubrication tasks.

NOTICE
The recommended lubrication is based on
light-to-medium usage. Keeping in mind
that lubrication helps to protect the value
and operation of the lathe, these lubrication
tasks may need to be performed more fre-
quently than recommended here, depend-
ing on usage.
Failure to follow reasonable lubrication
practices as instructed in this manual could
lead to premature failure of lathe compo-
nents and will void the warranty.

Change Frequency ....................... Semi-Annually
The headstock gearing is lubricated by an oil bath
that distributes the lubricant with the motion of the
gears, much like an automotive manual transmis-
sion. Change the oil after the first 2 hours of use,
then semi-annually.
Checking Oil Level
The headstock reservoir has the proper amount of
oil when the oil level in the sight glass is approxi-
mately halfway. The oil sight glass is located
below the chuck, as shown in Figure 102.
