I'm not sure, but it seems to be a pretty robust gear oil (viscous). Keeping it in a dark, cool place could possibly make it last for years, unlike say motor oil, which is quite light and airy. The original oil was in my saw for at least 10 years before it was changed. However, the oil on that saw had deteriorated over time to a dull grayish brown from weekender work. Many of my contractor friends who use these saws daily have stated that they don't change the oil very often. Usually either the complete saw would wear out, it would break in a fall, or it would most often fall down, or it would The stolen property.
Thanks for getting in touch, You are most certainly right, this
Oil like this one is very good
It is actually recommended that the SKIL 80111 lubricant be used with Because it was so effective, I kept the lubricant when I sold the saw, but didn't keep the saw itself.

Because I purchased this saw used, and I tried to make sure the previous owner had changed the oil. Watching some videos of guys trying to guess how much oil to replace it with, I got an idea of what weight to use. The factory recommended that I use what they recommend. I looked at the oil after pulling the plug to see what it looked like. I ran the saw for a few minutes to warm it up, then replaced and drained the oil. A 8 oz. bottle of this product is available. An e-tube. You might be able to replace the oil twice.
Flush your toilet regularly, don't forget. The oil I am using for it was purchased when I was overhauling the HD77M Skil Saw I bought. There were reports that any gear oil would work, even Slick 50, but I thought this was old and didn't want to get into any trouble. My first move was to run it for a couple of minutes and drain As per the manual, kerosene should have been used to flush, but I prefer not to use flammables in my basement repair area and used Lucas Fuel system treatment instead. The paint is oil based and smells well, and appears to be do not corrode A flammable substance that is also good for cleaning. This is what I filled it with after running the Lucas treatment for two Next, I drained the old oil and replaced it with new. I have a saw that runs perfectly and cuts perfectly, as well.
Since DeWalt recommends 140 gear oil as the correct oil to use, I will use this one in my Skil worm drive only, and I will use the oil DeWalt recommends for the worm drive in its saw. The deal came at a price that I felt wasn't very good, but the SKIL 80111 Worm Drive Saw Lubricant is what it says it is.
The majority of men do not think about gear lube until their saw starts squeaking. The gear lube on my saw has to be topped off every 12 months and I have had it Over the last 30 years, I have framed a lot of houses and done a lot of other projects with my Skill worm driver and it still works perfectly. If you take the time to keep your gears lubricated, you will have an heirloom tool to pass down to your children and grandchildren.
The manufacturer suggests changing the oil in your saw as frequent as recommended. If you love your saw as much as I do my Skilsaw, then follow the manufacturer's instructions. It does not take long to do, and it is very easy. You should not under or overfill the container. (The manual or if using a silsaw, the cap on the oil will tell you where to fill the oil. Your saw will run like new if you maintain it! Owners of worm drive saws should definitely invest in this guide.
There are a lot of great saws on the market. The lubricant is not sold by any of them. The irony is not lost on me. Amazon, thanks for the awesome service. The price is reasonable and what I ordered was exactly what I wanted. As I was driving around trying to find the right grease, I spent more gas that the tube cost.
I'll mention just one other thing. Few people even change the lubricating oil in these amazing A bad switch on it caused it to be used hard, so it was given to me. There is a switch that can be easily located and replaced. After replacing the switch, cleaning it up, changing the oil, and adjusting the water level, the vehicle is good to go for another 100,000 miles or five years, whatever comes.
I got the saw from a thrift store, I wasn't sure it would work, and I paid $10. When it got home, it worked, but it didn't have any oil, so I ordered it on Amazon and found some oil. Once I put it in, it has been the best saw I've ever owned. It is a very inexpensive oil that is recommended for this saw. This was the first oil I had tried.
As a result of my second hand purchase of a Bosch worm drive saw, I picked up this lubricant since Bosch brand lubricant comes in a tiny tube for the same price. So far, I have flushed out the old contaminated fluid and the new one has been running. I've been using the saw for about 50 hours now, and it is still in great shape.
