Lubrication

Proper lubr calion ensures a long life and efficient mechanical operation of your
machine. I he CALANDA is easy to lubrcate.

If the machine is in constant use, oihng will not be required more often than
once a month.
If the machine is used only occasionally, we, recommend putting a few drops of oil
into all marked oilholes before starting the machine

C, '2 - ; ..

To luhricate the bearings, one or two

drops of oil a month will suffice
