Too thin oil?

219.164.194.250

Hi Dave,

What kind and grade (viscosity) of oil do you use in the main platter baearing?

I suspcet a too much thin oil could cause the trouble.

Correct viscosity grade would be ISO VG 46 or SAE 20.

Used with too thin oil such as WD-40, there is less friction (but it will end up causing the bearing wear).
