<p>I used lithium grease on the contact points on the outside of the tube where it contacts the bearing and then run it thru the range by putting weight on the nose and bouncing a bit to spread it. I repeat this at least once a year, cleaning the old grease and adding new grease, or whenever the nose squeaks or does not move smoothly.</p>
