Thanks everyone for the comments.
In brief reply: I can buy Lucas oil products in the UK; I live in the north of England so it doesn't really get too hot (wet, yes ); I'll keep an eye on its operational temp as I run it in, using semi-synthetic 90w, or similar

Hi, I recently acquired a second-hand pugmill from a local pottery (see pics)
The previous owner said the gears had been replaced and that after using it for the first time I should replace the (hypoid) oil, which will remove the leftover swarf from the new gears etc.
Can anyone recommend which type of hypoid oil I should use? There seem to be so many :-(
Thanks in advance
Andy
