Thanks for the tips on lube and disassembly. I just purchased some Superlube synthetic grease, perhaps I’ll apply a very thin coat when I’m re- assembling. Cheers, Mauro

Don't do like me the first time I pulled a stack apart... remove every tray spring before starting!
I did one on the road in a house, not fun at all. That grease or oil turns into some weird looking green stuff and it doesn't come clean easy. I can't picture that on later ones. Has anyone else seen the green glue? Are they all like that if never cleaned/lubed since it left the factory?

and if so with what type of lubricant? Or do you clean and assemble it dry? Perhaps some silicone spray?
I’m gearing up to do an 1100 and still not 100% sure which way to go.

Has anyone come up with an easy way to free up sticky record trays

disassembling the stack assembly?
I'm dealing with a stubborn one that's been sitting idle for ten years

No short cut for this. The lube has dried up and needs to be cleaned
out and replaced.
Back when these machines were new the factory recommended a mechanism
overhaul/rebuild every six months for busy locations...
