This is the one I bought... I hope this is fine. I have not used it yet.. still waiting on the manual. It seemed good, but I can switch it for the basic 3 in 1 if its a problem.

SAE 10 is what SS recommends. 20W is a little 'thick' and more suitable for worn bearings or larger motors.jasonvfx wrote:This is the one I bought... I hope this is fine. I have not used it yet.. still waiting on the manual. It seemed good, but I can switch it for the basic 3 in 1 if its a problem.

I owe you an apology. When this question was raised I was away from my office and could not find the correct number for the Turbine Oil from Shopsmith.jasonvfx wrote:This is the one I bought...

Here is what you really want item number from Shopsmith 522053. In March of this year I paid $3.04 for them on special they are listed at this lionk for $3.80. Not only is the oil suburb. The container has a really long pull out spout which is extra handy.

Alright.. So I switched it for this one:

I know it is not the one from shopsmith.. but JPG did mention 3 in 1 as a viable option.. I am itching to start using this thing.. but I can't until I service it. Also, the person I bought it from is jerking me around about getting the manual from him, which is also preventing me from using it. Fun.
I hope that oil is fine. Thanks for all the help.

Use it for now, get a non-stinky turbine oil when you can. You can always use the 3-1 oil for general purpose.jasonvfx wrote:Alright.. So I switched it for this one:

You don't get the video with the machine. The videos are the Shopsmith Sawdust Sessions by Nick Engler on the web.navycop wrote:I bought my SS from the guy doing the DEMO. He loaded up the saw and followed me home w/it. I didn't get a video.
