You cold drizzle a bit of lemon oil in there to provide some lubrication.

It is becoming apparent that the motor springs need to be cleaned and re-greased ( occasional thumping, etc ). The problem I have is that the front wooden grill is apparently swollen into the bottom groove in which it rests...and of course it is necessary to remove the grill to remove the motor. The top of the grill moves freely. I have tried repeatedly to get the grill to budge, but can only get it to move a little. Short of cutting the grill out and repacing it, does anybody have any other techniques I could try? It has also occurred to me that someone in the past may have glued it in there, but I don't really see any evidence of that.
