[QUOTE="Macsky, post: 8765552, member: 44120"] Always just used any engine oil handy for the handpiece, but was clipping calves with [USER=1078]@Top Tip.[/USER] last year and the only oil to hand was top spec fully synthetic Mobil 3000, and, clipping the rear end of especially the heifer calves, I usually have to oil the handpiece very often as the blades get pee'd on, but noticed using the good oil that the blades kept their edge, didn’t heat up or get scored at all as they normally do, I can only assume that it would help the job when shearing too, I’ll certainly buy a litre of it and give it a try when shearing the hoggs shortly.
