Have yet to understand the correct oil to use on my Hercus 9 but so far am using "whatever" oil on the assumption that anything is better than nothing. BUT

- What is the most appropriate oil to use in the numerous oil cups?
- Also which oil is best for lubing the ways?

AND

- How is the Intermediate shaft lubricated? I cannot find any oil cups or lube points so have dribbled oil into the moving parts
wherever I could fit an oil can.

What is the correct way to lubricate the intermediate shaft? (Apologies if my terminology is incorrect.)

Thank you, Graham
