I am using this attachment for the first time in many years and it seems to be labouring during use. I don't have a handbook, so are there any oiling or greasing points that may help increase the speed. Or could it be another issue?

On the side of the column are two plugs for the oil for the bevel drive, the bottom one is for the level and the top one for filling with SAE 40 oil, there is also a oil point on th top of the quill, I think you will need to slide the head down the column to get access to this point.

Mike, Many thanks for the reply.

Found both oil points and immediate improvement.

Cheers
