the instruction manual states to use vegetable oil- no more than 3Tbl spoons. I use coconut oil 1Tbl spoon and 2/3 cup popcorn. Popcorn always tastes good-no burnt popcorn :)

you do not need too much oil. it actually depends on how much you want to fry. i make sure i have mine at least half filled

I strongly suggest that you DO NOT use less than the maximum amount of oil. With the bottom heating elements you need a fair amount of oil over them.

There is no manual, and you do have to add oil. The machine is not powerful enough to produce the oil. We were unhappy with this product.

Yes you can use olive oil, sesame oil, or coconut oil. These are all carrier oils.

Yes, but you need to use a carrier oil, like jojoba, almond, avocado or sunflower oil.

Yes. You will need some kind of liquid. Not much. I use a small amount of olive oil.

No, you do not have to remove the oil between uses, I leave it in there indefinitely, and continue to fill it as needed

No... Do not use any oils or medications with this machine. The manufacturer advises against this.

Yes, inside and out.... OK, on a more serious note ; yes, there is a small bottle of oil that comes with it. Depending on how long you intend to run it you may want to order a separate bottle of appropriate oil.

No oil needed. Just run it. When finished, make sure you let all of the air escape the top tank, and leave open the valve in the bottom tank so the moisture can drain.

No. The oil is encased in the heater. No muss, no fuss! It's a great heater!

I have used water instead of the included oil since I got it. Still works great!

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.

I cannot find any need to oil the pump as it appears to be a completely sealed unit. Have been using for a couple of months without a problem.

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