:) Hi, thanks for the responses, particularly Dom.
I have the exploded parts list also, which in that regard, is of little help.
There has been reference to a military Cine-Kodak Special II Repair & Overhaul Manual, does such a thing exist I wonder?
Repair & Overhaul instructions would be invaluable, and definitely worth purchasing if anyone had a copy.
I have yet to begin work on my camera, and am gathering as much information as possible before I do.
Mineral oil, such as those listed, would be more appropriate than modern synthetics I presume?
I will keep searching……
BTW cinematography.com has already provided much useful information; I am pleased to have finally become a member.
Best Regards,
Lance.

Hello,
I am in the process of resurrecting an old Cine-Kodak Special II (a clockwork/wind-up regular 16mm camera), and have been searching for a suitable modern lubricant to use.
I have looked at using high speed spindle oil, namely the following….
Mobil Velocite 6 (iso-10)
Shell Morlina 10 (iso-10)
Mobil Velocite 10 (iso-22)
Can anyone please advise if these are suitable choices for lubricating the bearings in these cameras, or suggest possibly a better option?
Thanks for your time in reading this post; any replies will be sincerely appreciated.

Thanks Dom,
I am actually thinking of giving the camera a complete overhaul, as I want to put it to serious use again.
What would make that job easier would be finding a copy of the military repair & overhaul manuals.
There is a mention of the Cine-Kodak Special II Repair & Overhaul Manuals on this website http://www.cameraweb.com/manuals.htm . The Email addresses given are inactive :huh: , so it only serves to show that such manuals were available. Where do I look now? :unsure:
