Hi Guys,
Can anyone educate me on the correct type of oil to use in my single cylinder direct drive hobby air compressor please.
I'm under the impression that it should be a straight weight mineral oil. Does 30wt sound about right.
I've tried to search but can't find a definitive answer. Its probably been about 4 years since it was first put into service and gets about 30 hours per year of use. Its looking pretty dark in the sight glass and I imagine the cheap chinese oil that came with it is well past its best.
Any help appreciated
Cheers Ricky
