Knee and column on their other mills use Mobil DTE Heavy Medium. If table/saddle is provided with a one shot Bijur pump like my CH, I put Vactra Numbered way oil in there

Thanks Ramsey, I think I understand the column and Knee but the manual call for Grease in the Head Zerks? Sovarex #1 Do you know a good equivalent?

Sovarex I think was a trade name of Socony Vacuum later Mobil Oil Corp...I have used Exxon #2 grease In my vertical head attachments with no problems...Number 1 is not as thick as #2.. You could try your local oil supplier maybe they can cross it over.. Just don't overgrease as at higher speeds, grease will churn and cause a temperature rise..Ramsay 1:)
