Sinclair/Wison Trimmer, lubrication?

[jhn]

Hello fellow shooters.

My first quistion here, couldnt find it in later topics.
From the netherlands, so parten my english,(i do try)

Oke my quistion, i have the Sinclair/Wilson trimmer, with a micro meter.
Great tool!!
Running dry it works great, but a litle voice says to me needs some oil.

My experiance is, dry runs best.
With lubrication (dry or wet) runs rough.

I tryde every thing, wd40 oil, and sillicone spray.

As soon i felt some roughnus i stopped, btw i tested all on cheap brass.

My Lapua brass i run dry.

Seems like anny lubrication, bras wil get stuck in the cutter.


So it ment to be running dry??


Much regards Johan

jhn,

On their site instructions.

DO not use oil except on bearing. Not on cuttter.

Cutter is to be run dry.

Good luck.

As in the photo, small hole on top of the cutter housing. The oil is for the barrel of the cutter, not the blades.
