New Ice Auger Break In

Jawjacker · #1 09-28-2018, 09:40 PM

Guys do you think it will be okay to break in my new Eskimo Z71 ice auger with Opti 2(in the pillow packs is approximately 71:1) ? Or should I use the recommended 50:1 2 cycle oil?

Manufacturers recommendation of 50/1 . Can't go wrong with that.

Myself and many others on this forum have been using Opti since day 1 on all our machines. Go for it. Do a search as there have been many of these threads on AO the same over the last 10 years or more.
