To be perfectly honest, I forgot about it.  So I just walked out to the workshop and looked.  The one I use is by Permatex "White Lithium Grease #WL-9"  It is a 1.5 oz tube and that should last me the rest of my life.  I got it at the local auto parts store.

HTH.

Sorry about forgetting.

Geez, I'm glad I saw this posting because I've never used anything on my tension lever and that must be why it wore out in 2 years. Now I gotta get me some grease.

ok.

thanks.

I also talk to ray.
and he told me where it should be place at.   place a small amount direcly under the lever (push up on the lifting part to have space to push a small amount of the grease  under it.
