lubricated and require no maintenance (See Fig 17)
NOTE: Any greasing or oiling of the above components
can cause contamination of the friction wheel If the disc
drive plate or friction wheel comes in contacl with grease
or oil, damage to the friction wheel wilt result
Should grease or oil come in contact with the disc drive
plate or friction wheel, be sure to clean the plate and
wheel thoroughly
NOTE: For storage, the hex shaft and gears should be
wiped with 5W-30 motor oil to prevenl rusting (See Fig
