WD40 can damage plastic components and should not be used. Lithium grease is used a lot on electrical components especially the flat cogs they use for cd draws. Or even vasalene. WD40 has a chemical in it that dissolves grease and is not suited to this as it is also a solvent.

I had a problem with a DAT Machine that had the same problem.

I bought some grease in a can (pretty sure it came from CPC or RS) and that worked a treat.

It came in a white non-aersol can with a plastic tube to get into the nooks and crannies and did a great job.

You may even find something on fleebay.But as people have said, WD40 is a no go and so is 4in1 8in1 or whatever that oil is called.

You need something that will stick & grease the parts...
