Have been working on an old Archdale radial arm drill. The only ?model number I can see is RD 7050 and the drill certainly seems 30-40s era. Have slowly sorted out the various functions and the drill seems to work well.
Have decided to drain the oils in the spindle head and the gearing for raising and lowering the arm. Any ideas as to the type of oil to use? Also where is the oil filler point for the spindle gearbox. There is a circular opening on the top of the spindle head that from old photos had a glass cover...?is that the filler point. Mine has been replaced with a metal replacement.
Are ?manuals available anywhere?
