Reply to "MTH Instructions recommend oiling the pickup rollers UPDATED"

I've never experienced issues with a very small drop of oil on the pickup roller axles, and I have never heard any blowback about rollers wearing out.  With no oil that tiny roller is wearing out the roller and the pin a lot faster than when it's lubricated.

We'll have to agree to disagree on this point, I strongly recommend a bit of lubrication on the pickup rollers.

You're probably right in many cases. I just can't bring myself to oil rollers anymore.  I'm probably just bitter due to a few bad experiences with passenger car  rollers that froze up with crud, and were promptly sliced by my Super O center rails. I still maintain that Super O doesn't cut rollers ----unless they stop rolling
