Great advice, all. Thanks much. I called on the Tribol 930 and there is now a blend called Tribol 1421 that is good for higher temps. Speedline recommends in place of 930 if you wish to do so. Might be something to consider for lead free stuff.

Speedline (800) 737-8110 sells it in 500 ml qtys. I'm trying to find some in larger, cheaper qtys. but no luck yet. I believe it's a Castrol Industrial product for starters.

Speedline also sells 1 gallon and 5 gallon sizes too. I think the 1 gallon was about $140, I dunno about the 5 gallon though

It is Castrol. We have a 4.49 gal. can of the 930. Don't know any history of where we got it, or how much we paid.

We use Biral B10-30. It smokes and smells the first time the oven heats up after oiling the chain. What we do is open up the windows and turn on a floor fan so the smoke blows out.

The Biral is supposed to gel up. Thats what keeps it from dripping off. It's kinda like motorcycle chain oil in that regard.

Does anyone have one of these machines laying around that can be parted out ? I am looking for the rods that the edge chain sprockets ride on. (loading side)

We roll ours up, fingers and all, and soak them for about an hour in a solution of water and DOMINATE (heavy duty degreaser) you can order from Grainger. They come out looking brand new every time!

We use a power washer, blow dry, then lightly oil the links with mineral oil. Works great
