Re: Lubrication for a time clock? On the Spot.
Thanks one and all.
Just finished putting it back together and its working fine.
I got all the thick grease off the gears, left a trace on the motor pinion teeth, added a very small amount of some fine sewing machine oil I had to hand.
The gears are large compared with modern clocks. The motor is huge and open, you can see the rotor inside.
It is making almost no sound now, think I've won.
Progress.
Sam.
