ALL machines need oil. Many machines have sintered bearings, meaning they're oil impregnated and won't need external oiling for several years but eventually they need to be oiled. Other parts need to be oiled when the machine is serviced but machines sent to North America are supposed to only be oiled by a tech because here we've been taught to be afraid of our machines instead of being taught to service them ourselves. It's all about the $$$.
