Watch this video, it gives you a basic instruction on lubing the lift system:


It is from the reference library, manuals. Hilo made a DVD with basic instructions back in about 2005.

Cool siderails??

Thankyou very much...I was also concerned about the actual runners, or rails that the top goes up and down on. Do I need to do anything there??

You can rub some paraffin or clear silicone spray onto the rails.
