| Hi. I'm in a semi-isolated situation and don't know who to ask about this, locally.
I just opened up my Bosch angle grinder the other day to check the brushes. While doing that, I noticed there was grease around the bearing on the power shaft, but no grease (and no trace of any) on the gears that send the torque through the 90-degree bend. Should I grease these gears? Thanks. Joel |

| I gather you guys don't service your own grinders? Do you just burn 'em out (LOL), or take them to somebody every so often?? J. |

| I'd grease the gears. Why not? |

| I've never considered taking one apart and greasing it. I guess it couldn't hurt. Mite want to use high temperature wheel bearing grease. Pooh Bear |
