I also noticed that one gear looks like it has some UV fading and am hoping it does not get brittle. I have to find a plastic safe, sticky grease to coat these gears.
Ron has used Silicon Spray for years on the antenna and all rubber...
and yes...make sure that thing is down as low as it will go...speaking from experience !! We now have the King Jack which, only, rotates.
