    Default Garrard 301 - Oil and Grease recommendations

    Guys,

    I've been doing a lot of homework over last few days with regards the best options of oil and grease for the 301. I'd like your counsel on what can used and if there is any general consensus of opinion in what should be used or what should be avoided. I've got the later oil bearing version. I intend to re-lub/re-oil all linkages & the obvious areas such as the motor assembly and bearing. As always your help and suggestions will be very much appreciated.

    Andy

    I suggest asking Loricraft in the first instance, as they know a thing or two about Garrards.....

    Well I'm completely blown away by that offer. I'm certainly not going to refuse this but I'll try and keep questions down to an absolute minimum.
