Hi,
I was just wondering if anyone used some form of lubrication for their hw gearboxes? I was thinking of perhaps graphite or grease? If I did would I have to seal up the entire gearbox?

Used to grease the gears but the mdf powder from the arena floor would stick to the grease and make lovely grinding paste.....I run them dry now.

If the gearbox is open, don't use grease.

As Trevor says, grinding paste is grease with abrasive stuff in it.
