GP 6.7.3 Die Set Lubrication
Periodic lubrication extends the life of the Die Sets. This can be done by
the user or the service technician.
Maintenance Schedule
Lubricate and inspect Die Set pins every 100K cycles.
Procedure
1. Inspect the punch pins for signs of wear or mis-alignment. Periodic
lubrication extends the life of the Die Sets.
2. The customer or operator can perform this maintenance between
technician inspections.
Inspect Punch Pins
To lubricate Die Set pins that do not have felt pads:
1. Depress the Die Set so that the pins protrude from the bottom plate.
2. Apply a drop of high quality machine oil to the end of each pin.
3. Wipe clean, leaving a light coat of oil on them.
4. Oil from the die may blemish the first few punched sheets after oil has
been applied. Run test punched copies until clean copies can be
made.
GBC StreamPunch Ultra/Ultra MP
To lubricate Die Set pins that have felt pads:
1. Lubricate with a high quality machine oil.
2. Apply oil lightly along the length of the pad [1], but do not over
saturate.
3. Do not use spray lubricants because they tend to dry up quickly and
leave a sticky residue.
4. Oil from the die may blemish the first few punched sheets after oil has
been applied. Run test punched copies until clean copies can be
made.
