Lubricate the Rotary Table
NOTICE! Never operate the 4th Axis without lubrication.
Operating the 4th Axis without lubrication may void your
warranty.
The rotary table is shipped without oil. Before operating, you
must fill the rotary table with oil. Only use AGMA 2 gear oil or
SAE 30 weight motor oil. Do not use way oil.
Note: After the rotary table is filled with oil, you must
allow it to drain the excess oil, which may take up to
two days. You may use the 4th Axis while it drains.
1. Identify the oil fittings on the rotary table.

you can feel back pressure.
