    Default Modig radial arm drill press

    Hi
    I've inherited a Modig RBM 28B radial arm drill. Its a Sweedish machine of 1976 era. It has a geared head but I cant figure out if the gearbox is meant to be filled with oil or not. There are no drain or fill plugs visible. It has numerous oiler points with little hinged flaps on them though. Are these points the only lubrication method?

    cheers Tony

    Probably best to post some photos or at least provide the model etc so we can better advise you... otherwise its a shot in the dark. Photos of radial drills and machines in general are never not welcome

    I put a picture of my modig head in your PM thread. But ill pop it here too. I used grease as there's no motor seals.
