As part of my early investigations into learning to operate the mill I'd like to make sure all the lubricants are topped off.

Can any FADAL owners kindly direct me to the location of the Way Oil Reservoir on a VMC 15?


I've looked all around the mill, read as much as I could ( the FADAL Maintenance Manuals, etc), searched forums and now it's time to ask for help because I still can't find this information.


I will absolutely get the mill inspected and serviced by a local FADAL tech as soon as I can locate one. ( Denver Colorado Area)

Any help is much appreciated!

Thank you

These model Fadals have linear ways and they have grease zerk type fitting banks on the Z axis, saddle Y axis, and table X axis for lubrication, not oil. Here is a link for the manuals. You should be able to find the locations in them...

That's super helpful, thank you for taking the time to help me out!

I appreciate the links as well!

I will go search for the Zerks now.

Cheers!
