I've not seen this information on the site (it may be here?). An oil company rep advised this morning that a major reason for not using engine oil in a Lathe is that engine oil absorbs moisture and may emulsify - the moisture in emulsified oil can create rust and thus damage Lathe bearings etc.
He stated that the correct oil an ISE 100 Bearing and Circulating Oil.
(I intend to use Air Compressor Oil as it appears to have the correct spec and can be purchased in a smaller quantity than 20 litres.)
