First clean the exposed parts of the rewind shaft with something like
denatured alcohol. Then apply a small (SMALL) quantity of light grease on
the shaft and some in the detent where the internal spring rides. Turn
rewind shaft as you slide shaft down and work grease in. Pull shaft up, wipe
off any excess.

Subject: [OM] Help with OM-4 rewind
| Just got back from a Paris/London trip in which I used my OM-2 and OM-4
| bodies (film goes in for processing today). While blowing so much film
| through both cameras, I realized that the OM-4 rewinder crank is rather
| stiff. Is this a simple matter of lubrication? If so, what should I use
and
| where should I put it? Thanks in advance folks!
