I have an old 14" lathe(patented 1890) with an external speed reduction transmission. I put on a 3450 rpm electric motor and have a max. spindle speed about 450 rpm. I found old grease in the spindle bearing access holes on the bearing caps.
Before I used it I wanted to get recommendations regarding max. speed and type of lubricant to use? Should grease or oil be used for bearings? Thanks Paul
