Application methods:

• GUIDES AND WAYS
• HAND GREASE GUNS
• PNEUMATIC GREASE EQUIPMENT

CHUCK-EEZ may also be applied down to -20°F using a brush with stiff bristles or by burnishing in with a clean cloth.

Grease each chuck twice for every eight-hour shift, especially if a lot of coolant is used. Two shots of CHUCK-EEZ is enough since the guideways cannot hold much grease.

Every two weeks, tear down each chuck to clean and re-grease. (You may wish to maintain a second backup chuck to keep your machine running while performing maintenance.)

As cycle times become longer (1.5+ minutes), greasing may only be required once in every eight-hour shift.

Hydraulic Pressure:
(Based on KITAGAWA F1236H00 Cylinder) Based on 1.250″ high soft jaws, proper pressure is approximately 308 psi. As jaws become taller, pressure should be reduced to approximately 50% of this value.

NOTE: This is a general guideline and should be checked against the chuck manufacturer’s documentation.
