Re: After market oiler
I am (was) running an ebay oiler on my Tormach KMB1 mill. I tested the original oiler (which still works) to determine exactly how much oil it dispensed each time it was activated. Then I programmed the new oiler to dispense the same amount of oil on the same time interval. Works/ed just fine.
The electro mechanical clockwork trigger for the air operated oiler failed, so I just slapped on the programmable ebay oiler because I already had it on hand. They seem to work just fine. The Tormach automatic oiler seems to just be another variant of the same thing. I have them on all three of my Speedmasters as well.
