    Little giants where famous for leaking oil in the old days I have seen them leak and wipe out entire shops more then once.. But since then they have redesigned them to prevent this The models made pre 1990 and up to 92 or so used to leak their mineral oil very often when the seals leaked the oil was for cool before the magnetic drives came along.. Thats why I would never use them until the last few yrs , Even their commercial pump's did the same thing..
