Andis Clipper Oil. It came with our Andis clippers and should be good for any other brand. I use it with no problem. It is a thin oil.

The only part that need to be oil is the chain, it will self oil. Use regular chain oil

It appears to be a real Kitchen Aid part. That said, its a quart can of grease. I suspect automotive undercarriage lube would work just fine. I didn't have any of than on hand.

I found oil in a squeeze bottle with a long flexible spout at Ace Hardware that worked great. No mess. Make sure you get the right grade oil for the fan. Info on oil grade is in the instruction papers that came with the fan or on line.

Good question Jack... all I can suggest is you read my review and any reply's I've made to other comments and reply's. From what I can tell, Slick 50 is oil with "magic stuff" in it (the "people" at Slick 50 call "magic stuff" proprietary ingredients). IF you believe in "magic stuff" then buy Slick 50. Just find yourself a good, honest mechanic and get his/her opinion and guidance. btw, don't drink some of the "koolaid" you read here... lot's of "hearsay" and "truthiness" abounds. hth, HiP

Thank you for considering AMC Parts Store for your mower parts.Yes, all these answers are appropriate. All purpose grease or white lithium will work well for lubricating these spindles.

Much better Chris, much much better, I use it on all 7 points of lubrication on all of my M&P;'s and the bread is much better, and cleaner, and unlike traditional oil that runs off in almost no time at all, this lube stays in place even after shooting. I put well over 100 rounds through my M&P;'s she I take them to the range, and she I field strip them for cleaning, the grease is still there, and does not attract grit and grime from shooting, it's a purchase that I highly recommend, and I'm very selective with lubricants for my firearms, Slip 2000 is the way to go. Their synthetic oil is great for the points that you can't get the grease on. But again, go for it, you won't regret it.

The reference to oil is sort of misleading. The "O" ring in the piston pump needs to be protected from drying out, specially if it is stored and not used. They really should have labeled it Grease because it helps keep the piston plunger O ring soft and supple to make a tight seal in the piston tube. The pump actually pumps air into the container to pressurize the tank containing your selected chemical mixture. Since the "O" ring is not lubricated by any fluid it can dry out and not make a proper seal. If you google "solo handheld sprayer lubrication" there is a link to a PDF from forestry-suppliers on the 400 series sprayers that says "Lubricate O-ring in pressure relief valve with non-water soluble grease on a regular basis. Petroleum Jelly works fine! On the Solousa.com site under support, handheld sprayers, service & repair there is more info on the care and maintenance of these sprayers along with instructions. But they really should have labeled it GREASE and Not OIL!

Coolant not oil. I use one for the water/soap solution in my parts washer. I have used similar ones in the past for cars and even a farm tractor.

Gillermo ... you are 100%, absolutely, positively correct about WD40 ... It's not a lubricant, far from it. We used it to loosen stuck/rusted head bolts on engines. How WD40 ever got the reputation as a lubricant is beyond me. Just wanted to validate your honest answer. Peace. : )

This is the gear box grease. I am not aware of another grease for the models listed.

You have to grease it, but not oil. It also has a service light that will come on when it needs attention.

I use regular chainsaw oil, any good oil to keep the chain lubricated should be fine.

No problem. Standard 5w-30 (no mix) is all it takes. I got mine at WalMart. They also sell synthetic 5w-30. I changed the oil after the first 5 hours. Went with synthetic.

We used some Kendall utility oil that my husband has had for a long time and put a little bit on each of the bearings. Worked very well. I imagine any kind of general purpose oil would work....like sewing machine oil.

It is covered in machine oil but you need to provide your own grease/anti-seize compound for installation.
