Lubrication for VPI tables

Now I'm confused. One recommendation says use white lithium grease, the other says to use oil for lubrication.

Does anyone know for sure which it is, or is it best to just contact VPI for this information?

for the scout its both actually. white lithium grease on the platter bearing and oil on the motor spindle as recommended per vpi in the owners manual.

feel free to drop vpi a note if you wish to confirm, they are good about responding to emails.

Does the Scout have the inverted bearing?
I have a HW-19 mk IV, pre-inverted bearing design platter.
So I guess mine should be done like Alephman says, lubricated with oil, not grease.
I probably should still shoot off an e-mail to VPI.

Thanks,
John
