Landis 16 Help

Recommended Posts

I just aquired a Landis 16 machine.  A friend of mine uses one and he runs WD-40 in the two housings on the transmission/clutch/pulley driveshaft that is on the back of the machine, I don't know what else to call the large shaft.  Are there seals on that shaft?  When I fill up those housings with wd-40 it ends up slinging the oil out of the housings.  Or is it supposed to have a thicker consistency oil in them?  Any help would be appreciated.

I have some of that too!!  Do you know if there are seals in there or is it going to sling it out in a nice line like the wd-40, lol.

Contact Eli at Landis Sales in Arthur, IL.  He is the expert on that machine.
