Just picked up a Delta DC-380 (22-680 single phase) planer. It's in great shape, but I want to replace the gear oil. I got a quart of petroleum based 85w-140w extreme pressure gear oil, but I've read in a couple of places to use synthetic EP oil. Does it make any difference?
Not buying from Delta; it's like $15 bucks for a pint and you need 20 oz for the gear box.
