I recently inherited an A-10 aircraft sextant that my grandfather used as a navigator during WWII. This forum has helped me with many questions about its maintenance and operation.
I would like to get it working again, since it is in need of cleaning and lubrication. I'd like to know what type of grease to use for lubrication. I have read that oil would not withstand the friction, causing error in calculations.
If anyone could help me with regards to finding the proper grease to use, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you,
James K.
