A very light application of petroleum jelly or equivalent will keep the locking mechanisms and keeps in good working order, while a suitable acid and resin free grease or lubricant should be used on sliding bars, gears and face plates.

Maintenance of friction stays is critical and it is important to follow instructions for lubrication and adjustment.
