[HAM] M-102-scanner bearing -bakelite gear

[David Damroze]

  Okay, I've got this thing all taken apart and hoping I can get it back 
together again.
   The scanner bearing can be turned by hand but is stiff . If I 
understand correctly , I should let this soak in  a solvent such as 
denatured alcohol or naptha for a few days and then oil the dickens out 
of it. Someone else mentioned carburetor cleaner.
  I am wondering about the bakelite gear because it is spinning freely 
on the rotor shaft without spinning the rotor.
   Is that supposed to do that or has something broken in there so that 
the gear motion is
  no longer transferred to the rotor?
