My D69u was stuck in some muck for a month or two.....I got it out and doing greasing and lubing things.....the lower rollers have plugs rather than the grease type fittings. Does this mean the rollers are self sealed? Is there a way to grease of lube these? fred

they are supposed to be lifetime lubed--but you can pull the plug and refill them up to level. There is a special fill rod that can be inserted to get new oil to the far side of the roller

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
