I think for the first pull down if you polish the gears and "blue print" everything.. may find it very satisfactory..It is well made and robust...or in plain terms make sure everything is clean with no burrs or rubbish that should not be there is removed... things should not have burrs or bits of metal but sometimes... so it is really a case of making sure firstly it is clean and metal free... inspect the mess of the gears ..mine was perfect but they got a good buff and polish...
I am running without greese on the gears with only a very light oil cover... does it work better ...seems to but in truth it has not being properly tested..certainly "feels" better. I have mine set up such that I get a wine at high slew speeds which is not on but it is here that it works best to track..so I dont slew fast and seek the better tracking......well I think it is better because I have the gears messing where I want without regard to slewing...
It is no big deal to pull it apart..simple and one should do it ..you gotta be really at one with the machine know it, care for it, and from this you understand it..exactly how it works for one and how you can help it be better...
