Hey guys!

I have simple but possibly polarising question.
Is it still common sense to not lubricate the pallet fork in the co-axial movements? If found a tecnical instruction with no orders of lubrication of the pallet fork of the cal.8500. What are your experiences or oppinions?

It's always been lubricated. The technical documents clearly indicate it requires lubrication. The "no oil" thing is a complete myth...

Nope - 9104 on the co-axial wheel
