Hey Guys Im a new owner of a PM25MV mill ,Have Q's regarding proper lubrication .
Also and if anyone knows if their is a dowloadable manual avail for this machine please post a link ?
regarding lubrication
I do have lots of stuff to use at home grease ( molly, White, Bering ) way oil 20-30W, Spindle oil 10W Trans Fluid btw ( not bad to use ) it was actually recommended on another machine specs . I have prob every oil grease u can think of besides all special specked in stuff im not gona buy unless its like i hafta
Anyways what are you all using for a mill that does not have an auto grease?
i don't want to go crazy and purchase special premium lubricants that are not necessary for what im using mill for. Just want to whet the whistle and keep things smooth thanks
Id like to know what i can get by with lubing
Lead screws
Ways
X Y Axis dial oil fitting
And MOSTLY If anyone is familiar. This mill it has a Z axis worm gear crank ( lowers the head)
Anyone know what is recommended up top?
TIA
