I pretty much use Open Gear Lube on things like all the gears in the gear train . I'm guessin you have the apron off the machine ? Theres a couple of tubes that are fed from holes in the front of the apron ,l those are meant for oiling the apron guts . I don't remember how many there are . I may have used some assembly lube when I put it back together , I can't remember that was many years back . The Open Gear Lube ya can get at any good auto parts or motorcycle/bike shops . The stuff I have came from Napa auto parts , but I reckon ya don't have those over there . Yer lathe did some travelin to get to yer place , do you know any of the history on it ? That clutch has some pretty important parts in it , make sure ya don't loose them . The screw that holds the clutch wheel to the shaft in the front of the apron may be a left hand thread , I know the one on my South Bend is . My clutch didn't work right I ended up putting washers between the nob & apron till I got it to work , when I got that workin I made a few shim washers different sizes but smaller than the washer I tried different sizes till I got it to work with the thinest shim that I made. There was a guy here that said he had a taper attachment for my lathe but I haven't heard back on wether he found it or not .
No problem anything else that I can help with is no problem for me . It's a god feelin ya get when ya bring something like these machines back to life .
