ok, so i am starting the process to rebuild several 1960's era craftsman
equipment, starting with the jointer.

i have the motor dissasembled, it wasnt too bad but needed a little
cleaning. bearings roll nicely, and were not too dirty.

my question is how much and what kind of grease should i use? will regular
bearing grease be ok? its made for very high temps ........

do i just need a little coating on the outside edge of the bearings where
they must move agaist the inset of the housing?? there didnt seem to be a
whole lot on them, not sure if thats normal or it has worn away with
time.....
