The oiling system consists of:
- an internal centrifugal pump
- reservoir
- flow regulator
- oil jets
- connecting tubing
It is designed to deliver a constant small jet spray of lubricant
to allow extended operating speeds and long life to relatively
inexpensive bearings. (Figure 1)
Begin by mounting the reservoir to the bottom of the oil pump
case with the short copper/brass fittings. (Figure 2)
Following the oil tubing interconnection diagram, connect the
pre-cut lengths of plastic tubing, securing each connection point
with a clamp. (Figure 3)
Just prior to installing the oil jets, pour half of the total
amount (supplied in the kit) in each hole. |
