Time for oiling the bearings on the 1200's and am curious as to what types of Oil you devoted 1200 owners use.
I found an actual Technics brand oil that can be purchased, but I was hoping someone knew of a product with similar viscosity. Any help would be appreciated !
EDIT:
Apparently 5-30W synthetic motor oil works well. shall look for a 20w viscosity:p |

This one works really well. I've gotten a much smoother startup than with the Technics oil, only thing the pitch goes off a bit because it glides much better so you get about +/- 12 pitch, but the pitch fader still seems pretty absolute on , so it's not hard to get used to.  |
