Amir:

The Shimano 3.3.3 is prolly off topic- it was found on low end bikes in the 60's and 70's.

If oyu google 'Shimano 333' somehting should turn up.

I had a set of exploded view diagrams at my old job but I no longer have access to them. I knew I should have made copies.,......

That's probably because the gears eventually need maintenance and nobody wants the hassle.

About a month ago one of my buddies found an old Ross (Chain Bike Corp) 3 speed and told me to pick it up.

To my surprise its a nice bike. After clean-up a very nice candy-apple-red showed in places.

It has a Shimano 3.3.3 3-speed coaster brake hub that I'd like to disassemble and re-"grease".

Anybody have or know where I can find exploded view drawings or maintenance instructions? What type of oil should I use? Any advice? Is this the right list to be asking?
