I just got a Kirby Diamond Edition. It work but the drive shift lever is really stiff to move between drive and neutral. My G4, G5 and G6 move much easier. Any ideas or suggestions?

Hi Ryan
Inside there is cam assy that could be bent or maybe "it" & axle are "dry" inside... & needs to be greased. (There are three (3) different greases used on "G" model Kirbys for maintenance.) This is something that should be done periodically on ALL Kirbys w/ TechDrive. (Outside chance the pedal assy is bad.)
If I may be of any add'l help, feel free to email me.

Thanks I will check it out.
I just got a book from an Ebay seller that does nothing but sell Kirby parts etc. I have the shop binder covering evey model. The diamond is so stiff you almost think your are going to break it trying to move it. Ryan
I need to dig out my screw driver set for getting into that machine.
