Getting surface planer back up and running
After a bit of a hiatus, I'm getting ready to make sawdust again. I'm
reading over the manual for my Delta 13" planer, and it recommends "extreme pressure lithium grease" to lubricate the gears. Where is one likely to find such grease? Wal-Mart? Auto parts store? Ace Hardware? Dedicated tool store? todd |

I'd use lithium-based wheel bearing grease from the auto parts store...

IIRC this is a common lube in the boating industry. |

The proper link for some reason never copied into my clipboard. It should have been: https://www.acehardwareoutlet.com/(i...?SKU=998016857 -- Jack Novak Buffalo, NY - USA |
