ASNU Member 261 Member For: 23y 7m 30d Location: Brooklyn Posted 06/06/05 06:22 AM Author Posted 06/06/05 06:22 AM Thanks Sutty.Might try the old graphite powder first to see what happens.Get the feeling the electric motor will kick the bucket if I dont do anything.I am sure this used to happen ages ago in earlier models.

The dealer lubed up the auto winding mechanisim and it went from eing the slowest opener to the quickest l would get the dealer to do that before spreading graphite powder everywhere.
