Lubrication

Lubrication
Since all bearings are sealed and permanently
lubricated, simply leave them alone until they
need to be replaced. DO NOT lubricate them.
It is essential to clean components before lubri-
cating them because dust and chips build up on
lubricated components and make them hard to
move. Simply adding more grease to them will not
yield smooth-moving components.

T27914—Moly-D Machine & Way Oil ISO 68
Moly-D oils are some of the best we've found for
maintaining the critical components of machinery
because they tend to resist run-off and maintain
their lubricity under a variety of conditions—as
well as reduce chatter or slip.
