Is there a supplier of Tutoro oil in Australia. I don't want to pay for a litre and spend 30 English pounds for shipping.

Thanks if you can help me cheers.

@KeithA Don’t know, but guess other oils can be used! Such as : Scott Oiler oil

Sorry, I missed this earlier.  If you're still looking, you want to use a mineral based hydraulic oil as per the Tutoro guy's alternative oil guide.  I use ISO 68/100 myself, and that's worked wonderfully for two tutoros with about 40,000kms between them.

 

They recommend you not use EP or motor oil, just mineral oil, as other types can degrade parts of the auto oiler.

 

A 4l jug of the 68/100 I'm running cost me $12, and will likely last millions of kilometers; a much better deal than importing their oil!

Well Yeh Thanks for that. It makes sense. I'll revisit their Web site and have another read. 40,000 kms should be enough proof. I like my choice of oiler, no problems at all after 10,000kms. Don't need to turn it on and off, everything automatic. Just have to make adjustments depending if dirt are tarmac. Very good. Cheers Keith
