RE: squeeky Ortho Flex

["Ed & Wendy Hauser" <sisufarm@mmmpcc.org>]

My Ortho Flex used to squeak periodically.  After much investigation I
figured out that the squeaks were coming from inside the flexible panels.  I
Found that I could inject some "Molycote" using a hypo.  "Molycote" is a
dispersion of moly sulfide in solvent and when the solvent evaporates it
acts as a dry lube.  It is available from dealers in industrial machine shop
supplies.  A slightly bigger slit in the leather cover and one could blow
either dry moly or talcum powder between the layers of the panels.
I recently had the saddle updated to the newest system and the squeaks went
away.  I hope for ever.
