I have 5 gallons of Mobil circulating oil DTE light ISO 32, the machine manufacturer calls for 47, I just got the machine (used Graziano SAG 17, pumped system in the headstock), and am planning on running a batch of oil for a bit, and dumping it, to clean out the headstock and feed gearboxes.
I'm sure running the light won't do any harm, especially in winter, but after the flush, I'm wondering if I can get away with dumping 10% DTE ex. heavy, ISO 150 in with it that I also have in stock to save 200$. do the manufacturers blend grades to adjust viscosity?
any thoughts from the Tribology tribe?
