True enough,
no oil in the motor. Also,
NO Tri-flow
grease in the motor either, as indicated in the Sew-Classic link referred to. Additionally, NO
grease at all the place pointed to on pages 15 to 17 of the pdf that Mickey2 linked to. I think the 'confusion' lies in the meaning of the term "lubricant" which can mean either oil or grease in everyday terms. Singer seems to label
grease as "Singer Electric Motor Lubricant" or even just "Singer lubricant."
We like and use the Tri-flow oil "Superior
Lubricant" (

Janey, Neat people never make the exciting discoveries I do.
