Grease.
Procedure: Wipe grease fitting with a clean
cloth before lubricating avoid injecting dirt and
grit. Leave excess lubricant on fitting after
lubricating to shield from dirt. This excess is to
be wiped away at next lubrication. If grease
fitting will not take lubricant, clean fitting and
lubricant passageway thoroughly. Replace with
new fitting if necessary.
2. Plastic Bearings - Grease all bearings during
assembly and oil before storage to prevent
rusting of shafts under bearings.
