The present invention is a lubrication supply system for a self-lubricating machine that provides filling of a lubricant reservoir of the machine directly from a supply reservoir. The system includes a supply reservoir in fluid communication with the machine reservoir, a transfer mechanism in communication with the supply reservoir and the machine reservoir, and a control system in communication with the transfer mechanism, wherein the control system controls operation of the pump to maintain a predetermined lubricant level within the reservoir. The system of the present invention allows for lubricant to be supplied directly from an original supply container of lubricant from the lubricant manufacturer or supplier, as well as any other type of container.
