Hello everyone,
I have a vintage NOS Series DC electric motor with me. The motor shaft quite stiff and when powered up from an 18V laptop power supply it does spin, but the rpm is quite low as its rated for 2400rpm. It's an 18VDC, Model: YY1W027 from Universal Electric Co. On the label of the motor (see attachment please) it says oil the motor every three months with No. 20 Auto Oil.
I have some Automatic Transmission Fluid with me and also some sewing machine oil from grapes brand. If I remember it must be a Grade 15 as per manufacturer when I brought it long ago. Can any of these be used to lubricate the motor? If yes which of them would be better.
Thanks in advance,
R
