I recently bought my first intimidator, an RL Alias and I am loving it, so much that I ordered a Vice. The Alias maintenance sticky does not show exactly how to remove the LPR from the Alias for lubing and either mine is lock-tighted in place or I'm pulling and twisting at the wrong part. Can someone walk me through how to pull the lpr? Thanks.

The Alias maintenance sticky does not show exactly how to remove the LPR from the Alias for lubinghey sorry about that, might be something to look into for updating the sticky - so you're probably twisting the LPR cap off right and the rest of the LPR stays in the block?
if this is the case, here is how I get mine off. Use this:

an adjustable wrench, around the collar of the LPR (should look like a bunch of flat spots around it, where the surfaces of the wrench can rest, without scratching anything)
If you're not sure what I mean let me know I'll get a picture

No scratching as long as your not careless below is a pict of my LPR, notice the flat spots and notice the shiney spots that should be black.

You can also go to Lowe's and get a 1" wrench and use that. I will occasionally wrap mine in tape if it's being picky when I go to remove it.

Great picture Squirlly thanks! and good tip lopez.. I always used an adjustable because that's what I had laying around my toolbox but the 1" might be the way to go to avoid having to carefully adjust the wrench each time.
