Default hr dig?

i have a HR dig attached to a axial trans, issue i think im having is it seems stiff to go into different positions. I can spin big spur gear by hand easy, but it seems like it either is hard to go in to one of three positions or takes a while (spinning the spur gear) to engage to next one. i took dig apart all moves freely and such. any ideas? I hate to hook it up and burn up servos

How clean is it, and did you put any lube on it when you put it back together? You might need to just a little bit of filing on it for it to be smooth.

Here are some tips from my HR...

Hope this helps.

This is what I use:

But just about anything will do, I put in on the linkage where it passes though the back of the dig, where the linkage engages the dig, and a little bit on the dig itself.
