Yesterday I started getting a "lubrication oil pressure still down" alarm on my Mori SL20 lathe. The gage reads 0.4MPa when the pump runs, which is about half of what the manual says is required. Today I plan to clean out the filter sock in the reservoir and trace the lines to check for leaks. Are there any other checks I should make for common issues? I'm using the proper 32 weight oil.
Also, since I'm on the subject of this lathe, where the coolant transfers from the turret carriage into the turret, it's leaking. Is it as easy as pulling off that small square block and replacing an o-ring?
