Some Speed/Crown Graphics have a brake for the rail. Its been
a while but I think there is an adjusting screw either in the
center of the brake lever or on the side. It should not need
lubrication. I need to get my Pacemaker out of storage and
refresh myself about it. I think there may be drawings at
www.graflex.org

While on the subject of lubricants, I have a Speed Graphic... to advance the front lens standard, the long rail, that holds the standard, slides through adjacent rails on each slide. If you've seen a Graphic, you'll see what I mean. It takes an effort to turn the knob that advances the lens standard rail.. Is there a lubricant I can insert into the retaining rails to ease the sliding,
Thanks.
