Presto 8dg platter bearing grease?

This is where record cutters raise questions about cutting, and trade wisdom and experiment results. We love Scully, Neumann, Presto, & Rek-O-Kut lathes and Wilcox-Gay Recordios (among others). We are excited by the various modern pro and semi-pro systems, too, in production and development. We use strange, extinct disc-based dictation machines. And other stuff, too.

I can't find anything in the manual about greasing the platter bearing. The grease in there is typical grey stuff, but seems kind of dry. Not really dry, but enough for me to want to reapply it. I put a few drops of sewing machine oil in for now.

What should i grease it up with?
