Does this have to be oiled due to its high-carbon content?

NO! This tool DOES require oiling in order to lubricate the O-rings as explained in the Owners Manual and should be run at no more than 85PSI at the tool.

Yes you can and without oil. I melted mine in a double boiler before I put it in the fountain to speed things up. Works great! But this is wonderful in a bowl to dip fruit in!

The wood is retreated, so it is ready to use. No indication that it needs to ever be oiled. We also live in MN, and my wife LOVES hers. It is exactly like the one Paula uses on her TV show.

Yes you can, but sparingly. The oil is quite thick and heavy so a tiny bit goes a long way.

Not Sure!!! Unless you plan on eating it. I would stay with The product oil Thats Made for it? Common sense is your best Answer.

it is a cutting edge, why would you use oil. the edge is replaceable although I have not had to as yet.

You can if you want but I believe it would be unsanitary and unhealthy. It might be better to use a smaller amount and add oil and throw away the remainder.

You're right, the manual says nothing about oiling this machine, and although I bought some paper shredder oil, I am not going to oil my shredder at all. If I start to have problems with it that I feel are due to a lack of oil, I will contact the manufacturer directly and ask them how to proceed.

I had a bit of oil on mine and I just burned it off. I think it is there to stop it from rusting while in storage.Hope you like it, I love mine.

No need for oiling. I would NOT use The Ringer on enamel. I did and now have an enameled dutch oven with scratches and a chip.

No, just be sure to fill the chain oil reservoir. Very pleased with the job it does also.

Yes, you can use any synthetic oil designed for this purpose. Never use oils from hydrocarbons.

My husband says yes. However, he adds that you might want to cover your hands with gloves after you use the oil, because they will be greasy.

I'm not sure but it's not just oil, it has some kind of sealer in it and needs to be applied more like paint.
