[Steam-engine] Case main bearing lube

[JEFF LUND]

Rick and Richard:

I recommend that you go and read the CASE steam engine manual.

Hello Richard,
Yes, the main caps are one of the most important places for grease. If the caps
are gone find new ones before you start steaming the engine.

Howdy all;
  Next weekend we will be steaming up the 80 hp Case at Ft. Missoula which 
runs the sawmill.  Now I know this sounds dumb but I see no way to grease 
the crankshaft mains.  There are two holes in each cap.  Should grease cups 
be screwed into these holes?

Thanks in advance
