Had to strip this down to replace the scraper which fits at the base of the helix cutting blade. Now I need to put the machine back together and find that the grease in the gears needs replacing. Bright green stuff, but what is it? Might be Silicon grease?
Anyone know?

Cheers man, I thunked that was it. It needs to be high temperature so that it does not melt and run into the electrics which are below the gear housing.

Is this the correct stuff, you think?
