Lubrication - Hitachi C 10FSB Technical Data And Service Manual

(3) Reassembly of the ball bushing
The Ball Bushing [106] and Holder (A) [115] are
maintained at a smooth fit. When placing the Ball
Bushing [106] into Holder (A) [115], gently hammer it
with a plastic hammer so that the Ball Bushing [106]
is seated into Holder (A) [115] in parallel. After
reassembly, lubricate around the steel balls inside
the Ball Bushing [106] with 2 grams of Nippeco SEP
3A grease. Apply machine oil to slide pipes (A) and
(B). When reassembling, put the Ball Bushing [106]
inside Holder (A) [115] as indicated in (A) of Fig. 75.
Visual observation will do for this insertion. Layout in
(A) offers about 30% higher rated load in (B).
(4) Reassembly of the bushing
Refer to "9. ADJUSTMENT OF COMPONENTS",
"9-2. Looseness Adjustment of the Slide Section".
When inserting slide pipe (A) into Holder (A) [115],
keep the two Bushings [108] out of contact with slide
pipe (A). At this time, apply grease to the contact area
between the Hex. Socket Set Screw M8 x 16 [110]
and the Bushing [108] to prevent drop-off. After
reassembly, adjust the clearance at slide pipe (A) by
tightening the Hex. Socket Set Screw M8 x 16 [110].
After adjustment, check the slide load (1 to 2 kg), the
squareness (0.15/100 mm) between the saw blade
and the Turn Table Ass'y [26], the squareness (0.15/
100 mm) between the saw blade and the fence, and
the squareness (0.15/180 mm) between Fence (B)
[23] and the slide pipe.
