Sam777 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Hello Group, I am not sure if that this subject has been discussed/answered. I have an EX-16. I have had it for about 5 months now and did a few little projects on it (about 20 hours of cutting). Can someone tell how / where to lub or oil this saw? I would appreciate the help. Thank you Sam amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrollerpete Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Your scrollsaw does not need any oil or grease, I have mine for 3 years maybe 500 hours of cutting and I never did a thing to it. Scrolling Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryEA Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 I don't have nor have even seen an EX-16 but if it will make you feel better, look for moving parts that you can oil/grease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrolling Steve Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 I have had my EX21 for almost 2yrs and the tension lever is the the only thing that has been lubed........My owner's manual states that all other parts are sealed and require no lubrication ...........Works foe me!

woodduck Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 As Scrolling Steve says I to only lub the tension lever with some petroleum jelly.All other bearing are sealed as stated in the instruction book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam777 Posted April 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Thank you all for your input. I don't have a manual to look at (I bought mine used). Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky2 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Sam, I've been running my Ex21 for over six years, I've never had to oil or lub any part of my saw. You should check out the possibility of getting an owners manual, or a copy of one. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam777 Posted April 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Thank you Len, I will check to see if I can download a manual online. Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstmuller Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 you should be able to go to the Excalibur web sight and get a manual there. I got one for my EX21 before i received it . Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
