Lubricating via the oil cover (every 6 months)
(Minimum lubrication specifications)
Pour lubricating oil into the oil (1)
about once every six mouths.
(Semi dry specifications)
Pour lubricating oil into the oil cover
(1) about as often as grease is
applied.
1. Tilt back the machine head
2. Pour lubricating oil into the oil
cover (1) until the oil level reaches
the reference line (2)
3. Return the machine head to
its normal position.
