daverclasper Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 Hi. I do this every so often, although it doesn't seem to take any oil and the oil sits on top around the screw. Does this mean it's ok, or should the oil drain down into the cam spindle. Any help great, thanks. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppyman Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 Hi Dave, It only needs a little drop, my dizzy does the same. Mine also has a small hole on the base plate to drop a bit onto the bob weights, but only use a little as to much gums everything up. Tony.

Pete Lewis Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 yes slow drain is normal , depends on the clearances , i guess certainly a drip drip rather than squirt squirt if that a help at least you are oiling it ,, saves the dizzy from destructive wearing out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daverclasper Posted August 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) Thanks It doesn't seem to drain down at all though, even over a few weeks+. Could it be blocked somewhere, do you think?. Cheers, Dave Edited August 15, 2018 by daverclasper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 easy to take the centre screw out and withdraw the cam from the centre spndle needs the base plate removing and the springs need popping off. pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
