LUBRICATION
The S23P was designed to minimize the maintenance requirements. Moving assemblies and contact faces need lubrica-
tion on a regular schedule whether they are in heavy use or not. The lubrication requirements of the S23P are primar-
ily the saw pivot points and shuttle assembly which are equipped with grease ttings, and metal to metal surfaces that
require lubrication to prevent wear and seizure.
It is recommended to use LPS ThermaPex Hi-Load bearing Grease manufactured by LPS Labratories or equivalent, for
lubrication of the shuttle assembly. For other points of lubrication general purpose grease is sufcient.
The lubricant should be applied as frequently as required. Main lubrication points are indicated on the following pictures.
GEARBOX LUBRICATION
The machine is equiped with a worm gear which is permanently lubricated and therefore maintenance free. The box has
no ller cap, level cheker and drain, as it already contains the correct quantity of synthetic oil, guaranteeing perpetual
lubrication of the crown and worm gear. Below is a short list of synthetic oils for permanent lubrication:
BE Energol SG XP220
KLUBER Syntheso D220EP
ESSO Glycolube Range 220
IP CT614
SHELL Tivela Oil SC 320
