Compound dial question

Let's not stray from topic gentlemen.

Thanks.
 
thanks, I did not see ball bearings on the exploded drawing. I will go back and look again
 
You should be able to remove the handle and then clean and lube the assembly. On mine the dial will jam if the nuts that secure the handle
are too tight though adjusting them is finicky because they have an effect on backlash. Though your parts diagram looks different than mine,
now that I look at it...

If yours is like mine, there is a bushing there: no balls to fall out. You should be able to remove the handle and then clean and lube the assembly.

I was using the diagram he posted. LA1164 (spring) and 0945 (Ball) as shown. There are three balls and three springs. It looks just like my 6561H
