I've been using the spec Merc HP Gear lube and no problems on my 575's. I've done bearings at about 140 hour intervals and everything has always looked good. 305 hours or so now. I change the oil every 50 hours and I run a 3.5" pulley. My blowers have a "W" on the side, and front and rear reservoirs.
