    Spinner Board Racks not spinning well

    I have a 2008 211. It has the original spinner board rack with the pull pin. About a week or so ago the one started to stick as you were turning the boards in to get them off. My brother put some WD40 on it and it got worse. Does anyone one know how to lube them? What is the proper way to lube them up? Any ideas?

    I would love to know the answer to this too. Pulled mine all apart and cleaned them, now what kind of lubricant do I put on them to keep them turning smooth?

      Love to know the answer too? More like still since it says you were the OP almost 3 years ago.

      While it is apart look for any signs of wear or misalignment. You might have to polish the pieces up to get them to move smoothly again. I would use a light general purpose grease like white lithium, I prefer it from a tube but if you already reassembled it you could use a white lithium spray and it might get in there. The traditional WD-40 multi-purpose spray does contain oils but also solvents and doesn't leave much of a long term protection and may have washed out any grease that was in the pivot or else have been incompatible with whatever was in there.
