"Bent" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang

Hello Garey
Thanks for response.
I have in the meantime found a mail response from William A. Frost March
21.1984.
At that time he also recommended "Lubri-plate" as lubrication for the gears.
Are you able to help concerning buying a little tube / box of this
Lubri-plate?
Regards
Bent

I use white lithium grease, sometimes sold as "LubriPlate" here. Wheel
bearing grease, at least the ones I am familiar with, have fibrous
material in them. Also, they are much too heavy, being designed for
bearings supporting several hundred pounds rather than a plastic knob!
:-)
I also don't care for metal bearing grease for light duty service. Drake
field changed the PTO grounding by adding a ground strap to the follower
rather than relying on the bare metal contact of the follower through the
chrome rider bar and/or the ball bearings.

Hello All
Is someone able to inform me which type of grease can be recommended for
the PTO ball bearings,
and between the shaft and brass bushing for the dials for the R-4C,
T-4XC, TR-4C etc.
Can I use a normal ball bearing grease for the car wheels etc. Esso
Beacon EP2 grease.
What about copper grease?
Thanks in advance.
