Rock-ola CDB-8 bubbler some questions. New to Jukes

Hello New to Jukeboxes. Have had old pinballs for along time.
Just got a used Rock-ola CDB-8 bubbler made in 2001 and have some questions.
Only Manual I can find is online pdf from Rock-ola and it is from 2003 for CDC-8. Any place to get CDB-8 manual for the orange internals?

Looking at the manual it shows taking apart the player arm, gears, pins yearly, cleaning, putting back together and lubing with white lithium grease. Is that really necessary every year for home use or would lubing yearly be enough and taking apart less often be ok?

Would like to get a wallbox for the kitchen. Rock-ola ones list new at around $900.00. Is there a source for used ones and would any others like the rowe CD-100 units work? For that kind of money could get another Jukebox.

Do these have a replacable battery and what kind? If they do is it ok to replace the battery with the machine on so it will save the settings? (like pinballs) I am guessing if there is a battery it is now 10 years old and should be replaced.

For the eprom chip is there a place to get the most up to date chip for this model? Not sure rock-ola would do this for a homeowner used and if so may be expensive.

Is there a source for IR sensor cable and remote other than rock-ola again expensive? Is there a RF remote and what ever needed available for these and if yes any source appreciated?

Is there a source or sources to have stuff like cd player, amp, computer etc. sent for repairs if/when needed? For pinball there are a bunch of good sources.

Thank You
Andy

Ok Answered at least one question. Battery is coin type CR2330. I replaced it with power on and so far no problems.
