[GreenKeys] Model 15 Mainshaft

[DR HOUSE]

The whole concept of wicks is to keep oil where it is needed the most.
Especially if the machine is running 24/7.  If you had a technician on- 
site
who is able to routinely maintain the machine each week you would not
need any wicks in the machine.  Just keep the oil and grease coming.

My 2 cents...

It's interesting that the Associated Press document says to never  
replace
the oil wick in the mainshaft.  "If removed for any reason, leave it out
of the shaft.  This will allow more oil reserve capacity in the shaft.
The long wick, over a period of time, has a tendency to clog the
mainshaft."
