[HAM] Oiling Leslies

[Bohachewsky, Andrew V.]

You might be better off pulling off the rotor and using some sort of
silicone lubricant (smeared on with a finger).

The lubrication is just so the horn spins freely on the spindle. Not a
maintenance issue like oiling the motors (you definitely want to use
Leslie oil for that!)

Following the factory treble rotor lubrication directions using oil
risks getting oil into the treble driver which is NOT desirable to say
the least!

Dear y'all
   
  Where it says "oil here" on the treble rotor, which oil should be
used, exactly? Is there a Leslie-specific oil for the treble rotor?
