Snail Drum Question

O.K. guys, I got her apart without any problems. I just took it slow and easy and tried first one screw at a time and tried different techniques to see how she would separate. I tapped gently in key places with a rubber mallot and watched and listened. I could tell that the lid was loose by the sound but it wouldn't come off. Finely I figured out that the tiny screw was holding it in place because the top couldn't slip off.
Now I have it off. I don't know how the items should fit and function properly.
The parts seem to be fine and I hope are all there and work properly. It did contain a good bit of old dried grease. Not as much as I expected.
Any hints on getting her greased up and all back together?
thanks
Jack
