Epilog provides a syringe of bearing grease for the IKO bearings in the Legend EX I have.

Works greats but comes in small quantities. I used some of that grease in other projects like printers with great success. Anyone know what grease it is? So I can buy in larger quantities?

thanks

I use white lithium grease, apply it, manually move things a few times, and then wipe it off lightly. Seems to be working fine thus far for my machines.

Epilog's tech support told me to use white lithium grease a couple of weeks ago.

The grease Epilog gave me two years ago was brownish white.

Here is what IKO says.
IKO Recommends replenishing the grease every 9-12 months.
Use Multi-temp PS No.2 grease or similar high quality lithium-soap based grease.

Do you think Epilog uses the stuff at any cars parts store? Do you think it matters?????
