Soooooooo, should I be greasing this connection?
I had an upper pivot arm seize up. Had to disassemble the press and clean up where the arm had galled. Lubed everything up and reassembled.

So you have a choice, you can lube now or disassemble later. All the pivot arm connections need some lube. My oldest RL 550 isn't drilled for grease. My newer RL 550 is drilled. I have some thought to drilling out larger and tapping for a grease zerk. A lot cheaper solution than $40 + shipping.
