Dave, I too have found the Triflo oil loaded with microscopic ball bearings, an ideal quick fix for old sticky grease in mechanisms such as the PTO bearings. No downside if you are careful to not get it all over the other radio components. Even then, it is just oil and teflon. The product is available at hardware and home centers, as well as in the bicycle trade. In some cases of sticky mechanisms, you can force enough in by the spray to not have to disassemble mechanical shafts and sleeves. -Stuart K5KVH |
