-
The Maltezer disk with its pin should be
greased as well.
-
The cross, mounted at the rear of the
slide disk, should also be greased.
-
The mechanism that pushes the
reflection plate needs grease as well,
meaning the nylon white plastic piece
and the asymmetric wheel.
The bearings do not need any lubrication. They are sealed. Only check the function of the
hinge for the moving reflection plate. A little oil might help.
Wear and tear
Most parts are no subject to wear and tear. There are a few parts that might need some
attention:
-
The Maltezer pin. It is made of hardened stainless steel (Rockwell grade ±55) to
withstand the very strong forces that might arise during viewer abuse.
-
The Maltezer disk with its half sized circular edge.
-
The Nylon block that lifts the reflection plate.
-
The achromatic lenses.
