Question: ata pneumo pencil grinder

[monk]

i have an ata sp60r pneumatic pencil type mini grinder. it is a very powerful little tool. i've not been able to find out if this little beastie uses oil, or is oil free. anybody know ? would oil harm the turbine if it was an oil free model. i've
had it about a month, but am reluctant to give it extensive use till i found out.

Monk I would think if you drop a email to any top turbine tool maker they could steer you in the right direction. There are some on here that do use air grinders as well.
Good Luck.
