What is the issue with getting machine oil 100 and 240 i can get them here as easy as any oil ?
I use 68 mostly but one of the machines calls for 100.
I call it way oil cause its used for for pressure feeding the ways of the lathes and the mills.
I would never ever put anything else then the best brand way oil i can get in my machines...i like them to much.
If it´s the gearbox oil you need that wouldn´t worry me to much to exchange for any good gear/ motor oil.
I´m being a bit fuzzy around my machines and pamper them to much...
