Not that I have any problems with acquiring the IR oil,
I'm simply lazy and don't want to go out and get anything
that I don't have to.

Out of curiosity, just how much did that IR258 cost? A pretty penny I bet.
So why would you want to risk destroying your investment in a quality tool
by putting the wrong lubricant in it? I can perhaps understand such a
reckless attitude with cheap import air tools, but why did you opt for an
expensive IR tool if you're going to abuse it?

Have to agree with Michael on this one. I am sure you spent a pretty penny
on a quality tool, so why take the chance? Even more so, why take a chance
with the warranty? I am sure that if something goes wrong and IR finds out
that you were using something else, they might not be so inclined to
acknowledge the warranty. Most companies are looking for a way out on most
warranties, why give them the chance on a costly tool.

We are all lazy, but I think you are making a mistake on this one.

Umm, that's why I'm asking before I do anything. Was that not clear?
I have every intention to take care of this tool, because yeah, it was
friggin' expensive. I wanted to know if someone happens knows if IR oil
is really a specific oil that must absolutely be used, or if it's just
something common with "IR" printed on the bottle. As I mentioned, I
have no information on the oil itself in order to find out on my own.
Not to be offensive or anything, but I'm not an idiot. "No, that
won't work, you need the real stuff," is plenty to let me know that I
should use the specified oil. The whole lecture thing--twice in a row,
no less--is redundant, a waste of everyone's time, and pretty annoying
to boot.
