Tryng to address each issue I am having in a separate post. When returning the record back to the magazine, the record take out arm doesn't rotate quick enough, resulting in dropping the record and the arm not resting in the proper position. I thought the ball and bushing was moving too slowly. I found a video which showed it following behind the movement of the record arm, so it looks like I am back to cleaning the pivot part of the mechanism.
I had already cleaned the gears put lithium grease on the gears, but could not find out if this is correct, except finding a general lubricant comment of applying grease to gears and 20w to everything else.
Would this still be a cleaning/lubrication issue? Will the only proper way to do this is to separate the record arm from the pivot assembly.

Hi Mike, I don't believe I have ever seen that happen--but I do believe I have seen the results of it several times--records broken,and piled up under the gripper which is sitting sideways. I have always been able to "fix this" with the 20 wt. oil-- but these phono's were mostly in commercial use--not to badly "frozen", so I am thinking that you are correct--it should be dis-assembled/cleaned--- Ron Rich
