Just a suggestionm, if you haven't already done something similar--pull
out the tension assembly and work some paste wax into the screw thread
then wipe it off. Once it dries it won't pick up dust like grease
would, and it makes the mechanism work much more smoothly.

Or one of the dry lubes like Boeshield.

Boeshield isn't really a lubricant. If anything, it does the opposite.

It's a paraffin wax. Whether or not that's a lubricant is debatable.

As much as the old timers love to spend all day waxing their tool tops,
I would think they'd be flocking to Boeshield.
