Hi, Im Restoring a AM32 lathe that have been off use for about 15 years. Its very dirty and have some oxide. I think that the best option is to disassembly all parts, clean, nikel or chrome parts, lubricate, etc. I would like to disassemly the motors change bushings if necesary and reassembly, but Im not sure how to lubricate them, which oil to use.
someone has any info?
thanks!!!

Re: Oiling
Len Horowitz has always recommended mineral oil and not something like 3 in 1 or other actual "oil" products. It doesn't break down and get sticky like less refined petroleum products do.
