Section 4: Maintenance; Lubrication - Grizzly G0479 Manual

There are four main areas to keep lubricated on
the Model G0578 Pan and Box Brake: 1) The
unpainted cast iron surfaces, 2) the bending leaf
hinge, 3) clamping leaf grease fittings, and 4) the
setback knob threads.
Cast Iron Surfaces
To prevent rust, all unpainted cast iron surfaces
on the Model G0578 should be regularly main-
tained with a surface protectant like G96 GUN
®
TREATMENT (Model H3788) or BOESHIELD
®
T-9 (Model G2871).
Note—Check with the current Grizzly catalog for
current pricing and a variety of other quality metal
protectants.
Clamping Leaf
There are two grease fittings for the clamping
leaf (see Figure 21). They should be greased at
least once a week. Grease daily if your machine
is under heavy, continuous use.

shown).
