I have 2 bosch plunge routers. The smaller one is the GKF125CE ( ¼ shank), while the bigger one is the MR23EVS (½ shank). I’m having trouble getting the plunge operation to be smooth on either. Sometimes it is, but most of the time it sticks, forcing me to put a lot of downward pressure. I notice it more on the smaller router, but that may be because I find I use this one 80% of the time.
I’ve tried silicon spray, but have gotten mixed results. What do people use to lube their plunge routers? Or, is it a protocol where I do X after every use?
Thanks,
Dennis

WD-40 specialist dry lube has worked wonders for me.
Worth a shot.
