Better operation of the eunit can be obtained by adjusting the tension on the shoulder pivot screw. That screw is threaded into the hard fiber contact plate. It is then locked in place with a nut. To loosen up the operation loosen the nut and back the screw out about a 1/4 turn. Then while hold the screw head from turning, tighten the nut.
There is a lot of information on repairing these locomotives in this older post.
