Basis bearing lube - Debut and Ovation


Yes I have both. I have done a search for Basis recommended bearing lube but found only general discussions. What does basis/ AJ Conti recommend for lubrication of the bearings on these tables? There are many discussions on lube but I cant find anything they recommend. I had to take them apart for a move. With the CES going on, I doubt I will get a speedy answer from Basis (as I have emailed another question earlier with no response). I love my turntables but find the lack of manuals or technical information about maintenance on the Basis site a little frustrating.Thanks

Refloating from the depth this thread to avoid opening a new one with pretty much the same issues:

I wonder if anyone can point at me how to check/fill in the oil in the bearing house on a Basis Debut TT?

I have the original manual but it does not mention anything at all about how to check it/refill after mounting the ttable after an overseas trip (duly dismantled as per Basis’s instructions).
Thanks all in advance!
Brgds, Marcelo
