Replacement oil, Help!

Previously, I used straight,  non-detergent 30W in the gearboxes. I may not have that option here. What is the consensus on an equivalent replacement?  Thanks in advance for the help. 
Both machines are HF; 12x36 lathe and the ubiquitous, round column Rongfu clone 6x19 mill.

The manual says to use ISO 32 oil which SAE 10W is the equivalent of. It's readily available through Amazon. Hope this helps.
