3in1, some grade of motor oil, some hybrid concoction?


I never found out what the right oil for a Garrard 401 was.
As the bearing is similar to a Roksan, according to the pdf on that page,
then I guess the oil will be about right too.
I thought for a plain spindle on top of a ball-bearing,
something heavy like EP90 gear oil would be best.
