Ball Oilers

Oil Type ......Model T23963 or ISO 32 Equivalent
Oil Amount ......................................... 1–2 Pumps
Lubrication Frequency ...... 4–8 Hrs. of Operation
Red Mark
Proper lubrication of ball oilers is done with
a pump-type oil can that has a cone tip (see
Page 40 for offerings from Grizzly). We do not
recommend using metal needle or lance tips, as
they can push the ball too far into the oiler, break
the spring seat, and lodge the ball in the oil galley.
Push the tip of the oil can nozzle against the ball
oiler to create a hydraulic seal, then pump the oil
can once or twice. If you see sludge and contami-
nants coming out of the lubrication area, continue
pumping the oil can until the oil runs clear. Move
the components through the entire path of travel a
few times to distribute the oil. When finished, wipe
away the excess oil.
Use Figures 76–82 to locate the 11 ball oilers on
