I just break it in. Maybe put a couple drops of YYJ Thin Lube in there and it plays like a beauty.  
They also won’t rust and there is no need to clean it.  
Just break it in and you’re good to go!

Its a nice bearing. But mine took a while to break in. It should ship within 2-4 days.

I clean the bearing, blow it out with compressed air, then add a drop of lube from a needle on the bearing. And the 10 ball is stainless steel so it might rust but its very unlikely.

I just got an M1 today, what should I do to the bearing? I don’t have any thin lube though, so will it just break in?

Well, I run my 10-Ball bearing dry so it plays at the best of its abilities. Its a tough bearing so I’m guessing it has 2 more years until it dies.
