Then take the top off your lube and dip a pin in it. Touch it to a few balls on your de shielded bearing. A drop of lube will make it more responsive, as well as pads. ---

Lube tends to make it responsive. Clean the bearing, then just lightly lube, if at all. Some people like to run w/o any lube. ---

Well I’m not sure what I did. I played with it for 2 hours and it became unresponsive. It plays like its brand new now. ---
