Have a chat to your local bearing supplier. When I did my Kondia, I was lucky enough to chat to a guy in QLD who use to be a service tech for them. He advised me to get a tube of appropriate lube from the bearing supplier, specific to the task (comes in a little toothpaste tube). He also told me to not to put any more lube in than 30% of the capacity of the bearing. The reason he gave was that excessive lube actually causes increased temperatures and premature failure.
It wouldn't hurt to have a chat to the people that you get the bearings from, as you will have to buy decent bearings (otherwise you'll end up with a cheap drill press!).
