I saw one guy on YouTube use 3 in 1 oil.

Sounds like you got a steal! Watch the sawdust session maintenance videos, you will be glad you did. A Zoom Spout Oiler will let you put the oil where you want it without making a mess.

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them. :)

That would be the drive coupler for your spt's (jointer, bandsaw, etc).
Thanks Bruce! Just watched a YouTube video and the guy had it coupled to a band saw. The jointer is still like an inch above the headstock. Does it matter if jointer is on left or right?
Jointer only works on left and is driven by the lower(idler) shaft.

Inch above the headstock? Think we need to see a pix.


#10 machine oil - sewing machine oil - 3 in one oil - turbine oil - electric motor oil - fan oil - zoom spout recommended. WD 40 - NO!

Universal motor? :confused:

5 0 5 gauge?

2 rip fences and 2 miter gauges each different?

Figured it out. The left handle was loose. Tightened it up which pulled the square nuts inside. Jointer is good.

Universal motor? My iPad must have corrected from universal arbor.

5-0-5 gauge is the small fine adjustment for the table. It goes 90-0-45 then right next to it is a small silver scale of 5-0-5. I have an extra of those.

Miter gauges are same. Just one has the grip attached.

One large fence and a smaller fence. Not sure where or what the smaller one does.

Just started watching sawdust lecture of maintenance.

Might be easier to make a fake Craigslist ad and attach pics that way.

Here is the SS I just purchased. No I'm not selling it, easiest way to show pics.

1- vacuum
2- SS
3- jointer
4- saw blades and accessories
5- accessories
6- random attachments I don't know what they are
7- random piece
8- fence and smaller fence
9/10 inside

Blew out saw dust and cleaned outside so far after pics were taken. Oiling and waxing tomorrow. I want to take jointer apart er and go through it thoroughly.
