What is an alternative to the Hitachi lubricant? Not that I mind getting the stuff, I'm just looking for something I might have already..Need it NOW.

I don't know. You may try to find out on Google or something like that, but I would caution you about mixing lubricants. For something like this, it may be fine as it's not necessarily a precision instrument, like my experience is with video equipment, but sometimes mixing lubricants can cause gunking. I wouldn't do it, the equipment is too valuable to ruin.

I use a couple of different brands of pneumatic gun lubricant with my Hitachi. I have a great number of pneumatic guns and tools of varying brands. I have yet to use the tool manufacturers recommended brand only or specifically. I have never had a tool failure and some of mine are over 20 years old. As far as I know, no pneumatic tool manufacturer produces a proprietary lubricant. The lubricant is a light weight oil of generic production, just like chainsaw bar oil.

I use Passion. It's a "natural water based lubricant." I would assume any water based lube would be good use. Have fun with it.

What did you end up getting? I was looking at this tool kit for nail polish and accessories as well. If you got this, how is it working for you? Thanks for your response.

I would say no because it does dry up rather quickly there has to be places on line were you could get the proper lube at a reasonable price. checked for example on e-bay and there is lots for around $10 but i would not use this spray and of course that's just my opinion but that's the opinion that works for me I see Amazon has it to but prices are higher than e-bay I guess they don't check the competitions prices hope this helps a little.

Lubricant is provided by the manufacturer. Be aware this piece of equipment is prone to excessive rust. I would not recommend it.

You know after looking at several I have no idea what they are talking about some list red, silver and grey. Just go with the Carbide dies. you are right with carbide you don't need lube.

Hi, you can buy lubricant from ebay,amazon, autozone,any store for auto spare parts, you can even use regular vaseline to lubricate these cords

I have not had an issue with it while not using the lubrication. Personally, I don't think it needs it. I had an older one that worked fine without that as well. Hope this helps! :)

I bought a quart of "chain saw lubricating oil" from Ace Hardware. That is what it is called.

It's more of a lubricant. It has limited cleaning ability and is way too thick to clean effectively. I use Bore-tech Eliminator to clean and regular Slip 2000 lubricant to lube.

I have a problem with the auto lube feature. It does not work. I've heard it is a known defect, but I am concerned it needs to be repaired or replaced. Ideas?

I was shipped a device made by Intertek, the name Hitachi is nowhere to be found. I have read the Hitachi was attempting to distance itself from the reputation of the old Wand, so I don't know if this is made by Hitachi or not.

I use an office depot shredder lubricant I bought about two shredders ago and still have most of that bottle left because I only use it VERY occasionally. I just run a line of it across a sheet of paper and run it through. I must admit it sounds smoother after that. Probably should use it more often, but I forget until it sounds a bit ragged.

I see the wd40 solution here and its really not that complicated, clean it with a soft cloth, wipe it out and use a tiny bit of Burt's Bees wax, or chap stick to lubricate it. Just lightly rub it onto the nylon bearings with your finger. Works better, its easier and non toxic. I did my red ball about a year ago although Ive wiped it out several times since I still haven't had to re lubricate it. Now I need to replace mine because the left click is not responding well.
