To vVerwendung I can only fine, recommend thin oil as sewing machine oil or Ballistol-oil, thicker oil will be pumped through the thin tube worse. The padding works best with a small funnel. The oiler keeps the oil seal, front and rear, you could wear it in a tuxedo.
Approximately 5x pump brings a small drop on the tip, pump at 10x drops a large drop.
I oil so that a hair clipper, Zipverschlüsse, locks, etc., everything that arises in the household so. Complete satisfaction!
ADDENDUM: after several oils or when using a thicker oil to slow the flow of oil, the oiler itself has no pump in the proper sense. To remedy this, the rear locking screw is to every now and then loosen about 2 turns and to close again. Then the oil runs by without any problems.
