Challenge 27 oil elevator

Post by Kenneth »

Does anyone know anything about the oil elevator on the Challenge 27? The drawing shows something that looks like a piece of chain that rides on the inside of the bull gear. I don't see that on this mill. Any info would be helpful.

Thanks, Kenneth

They had two different oil pickups they used on the bull gear. I will post a pic of what I believe you have tomorrow!!
