Nibbler cutting oil

[Dave Sherwood]

Hi,I have just been given a Nibbler attachement and it recommends the use of a cutting/Cooling oil.Which sort of oil should I look for or would any good oil be ok?.
Thanks Dave.

Cutting oils will be ideal, aerosol ones are probably easiest. Something along the lines of this stuff

Basically Dave very thin oil. I have used air tool oil in the past with my nibbler with no problems, car engine type oil is to thick and sticky and will slow the nibbler down

Thank for the info,I gets confusing when you dont know exactly what you need.

I just squirt the cut line with WD40 or similar or run a bead of 3-in-1 along it and my cutter has been fine. It's essential on aluminium as it is more abrasive than steel and I do tend to use a thicker oil on it and it also helps to catch and hold the toenail clippings.
