Maintenance

Head Assemblies do not require continuous lubrication.  However, careful maintenance means longer product life and hours of trouble-free operation.  It is recommended that a thorough cleaning and lubrication be completed between 80,000 and 90,000 cycles.  The head should be removed from the fixture and disassembled, as outlined in “Assembly/Disassembly.”  Clean all grease and metal particles from parts.  Coat parts with a lithium soap base grease Molykote BRZ-5 or equivalent and reassemble the head.  The lubricant is available from the following sources.
