I had a similar question about my Atlas lathe change gears. The manual
recommended Keystone 122. I contacted Keystone through their website and
they recommended one of their products (122 was no longer made), then they
went on to say that any grease with "moly" in it would work. I assume moly
gives it the grip. I since lost their email and don't have their specific
product recommendation any longer.

In the process of fitting the vertical attachment to my Sturdimill, I note
that the manual doesn't show any lubrication on the gears between the
column
and the attachment; these are in a 'dry' section with no greasing points
and
will have to be lubricated before assembly as the gears are inaccessible
with the head fitted. Any recommendations as to what grease to use? The
maximum speed here is 2000RPM on the smaller gear, so I guess a high
adhesion grease may be needed.
