JACK LUBRICATION
A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to
pivot points will help to ensure that pump pis-
tons move freely.
NOTE: Never apply oil to the saddle. If saddle
extension threads require lubrication; clean
thread surfaces with a clean, dry cloth, then ap-
ply a drop of bearing grease to the threads. Dis-
tribute as evenly as possible along the threaded
post.
