That sound promising. During this year, did you do any maintenance on the Watts? Checking bolts, alignment, lubing etc. Over time, how do you know that it works properly and articulate in the best manner? As I understand, lubing with grease is not the way to go, that can attract dust and dirt. If any lubing is to be done you should use "dry lubricant". I was thinking, maybe I should lube them at once, or maybe I should just leave them alone and see what happens.
FYI, I usually just leave them alone.
To make sure it works properly over time you first need to take your time and make sure it set-up correctly, then at least do PM about every 3 months. If something does get loose/out of adjustment you'll likely hear/feel it. I had to tighten up a few nuts/bolts in the first 2 weeks, but after that nothing.
