Machine is a Haas VF4ss dated 9/2014 12000 rpm spindle. Been on machine 4 months.
Check lubricating oil level daily, but level in reservoir has not gone down any.
Did lube check and did see oil drops and air is flowing thru tube. Machine runs 1
8 hour shift 5 days a week. Occasional Saturday 1/2 shift. Called Haas service.
Suggested to have Haas service stop by. Grease system seems to working ok. Grease
is down about 1/3 of the container in same time period. Does anyone else have the
same experience with this lubrication system ?

Thanks,

Same here, but maybe 10-12hr avg. Two machines from 2014, one 2015. All have used only about 3/8" or so.

Grease system I've refilled all of them once so far, about 3/4 worth.
