Hey Monk, finally got it apart . Alright, in Larry's tutorial he mixed a couple of drops of oil in with the Permatex if I'm not mistaken. I don't really see it as a necessity, but you can if you want. Make sure the oil is the blue cap motor bearing oil and not the standard 3 in 1. I used a light film of oil on the spindle, no grease. As for the cam, I didn't remove it completely, mine wasn't nearly as dirty as yours. I just lubed the shaft with a drop or two of oil and cleaned the old grease off where I could and applied a bit of Permatex to it. While I was in there I applied a couple of drops of oil to the motor bushings and wrapped it up. Hope that helps. Mike
Thanks! Before I put the bearings and two washers back on, there is a fixed, non-removable metal piece that makes contact with the bottom bearing washer (see picture below). Does grease go on that fixed piece or does it stay dry?
