Hi All

I am going to need to put the transmission and spin shaft back together with the replacement parts. Is automotive axle grease ok to use on the agitator shaft between the spin shaft and the agitator shaft? or is there a special oil that needs to be applied?

I know the wigwags seem to have an axle style grease. i am just at the point where i want to start putting things back together while i still wait for the bearings to turn up for the machine.

I would like to avoid the strangling duck sound that my 1300 series makes.

the manual refers to turbine oil, I am not sure where to source that, when i search for it i get a lot of reference to sewing machine oil. are they the same?

Zoom Spout oil is what most of us use for washer bearings that call for turbine oil.
