Could somebody lead me in to an equivalency chart for greases and oils?

I have a Prazi (German) lathe and the recommended lubricants are European standards and I’ve been having a time trying to find a US equivalent.

Anyhow, here are the types:

*Slideway Oil (GBO 45)
*Roller Bearing Grease (SWA 532 or Esso Beacon 2)
*Gear Box Oil (GL60 or GL125)

I appreciate it! I’ve used some of the stuff I have laying around (i.e. differential oil), but am afraid it may not be working right.

Thanks!
