After repairing the Auto/Off/Manual selector buy releasing frozen, phillips screw/lever in base,[as opposed to the top selector] on OM-2 bought on ebay I tried the "winder 1". The winder works on another OM-2 that I own but does not complete, but tries, a wind. Is there a particular lever that needs lubrication/cleaning/freeing up in the base after the OM-2 has been sitting for some time? I will take the base off again to try and determine what is not operating freely,by comparison, but if anyone has a hint I would appreciated it. I will post progress, with picture, when repair complete. Thanks, Thomas Shafoaloff, LawyerAccess1@aol.com What lubricant is recommended for the winder levers and gears in base by the way?
