Too bad you didn't get the 5 gallons from Enco on a 20% off and free shipping day. 5 gallons would have been $80 delivered and you would have had plenty of extra to spill on the floor [not saying how I know this ] or to use as a change after break-in.
What does the lathe take?

You're probably right Arvid.
The manual says "Fill oil cup daily with Mobil DTE Light". I thought 1 gallon would last me a lifetime but I guess I don't know how much the "cup" takes.
The lathe uses DTE Heavy Medium.
I better contact Matt about a break-in procedure. The manual doesn't say anything about a break-in procedure.
