[GreenKeys] Grease, Oil and M28ASR units

[Don Robert House]

Greg,

I recommend ONE GREASE by the Slick 50 people.  It works well and  
seems to stay where you put it.  If you know of a place that sells  
CONOCO grease, George Hutchison swears by it.
I really like the One Lube and One Grease products, they look good,  
work fine, and last a long time.

If you cannot find One Lube you can use what Western Electric  
provided us under the KS 7470 and 7471 specifications.  AMOCO S.A.E.  
20-20W Motor Oil and regular wheel bearing grease.

GM, all,

Maybe I am losing my mind at this point in my life, for I can't for  
the life of me remember what the group is using
for grease and oil to lubricate a M28 ASR. I am really at a loss to  
remember what grease to use on the gears and
other parts which the Teletype Corp recommended for use.

I am currently restoring an M28, plus boucoup typing units and  
reperfs and could use the info. Gun grease, I don't
believe, will fill the bill for gearsets because of its rather low  
viscosity, and Lubriplate is always, to me a no no because
of its hardening and tenacity with very quick aging, and tendency to  
stick parts togtether permanently  until unstuck with
solvent.

Anyhow, since we at our age are starting to suffer from CRS (Can't  
Remember S**t)  would appreciate a heads up on
the oil and grease issue. Would synthetic oil be a winner here?? and  
what grease does this vast group recommend for
the "G" points on the unit? Inquiring minds want to know [grin].

73 es tnx much de
