I read the manual, youtubed and searched the forum. Thinking its probably a stripped gear or something. I will get under tomorrow to check a few more things, but this is probably not something I am equipped to do.
Figure on calling a mobile tech most likely, but only here a couple days. Will figure a way to secure (in) if I can’t get anyone by Wed, til I hit Long Point, which at least is not too far. So any ideas? Or does anyone recommend a good one in the area?
Thanks!

We had the same problem. 1-2 minute fix. I sprayed all the pivot points (20 or so) with penetrating oil and it worked like a charm. I was pleasantly surprised. It's best to avoid using WD-40, or so I'm told, as it will be a short term remedy as it can evaporate.
