Yamaha YP-211 Cueing Problem

Hello,
Does anyone know if the cueing mechanism on my Yamaha YP-211 uses silicon damping fluid or not? I recently purchased one that had been stored for some time. I replaced the belt and all functions work fine except that when moving the cueing lever to the down position, the toneare drops way too fast. Normally these are fluid damped but I am not sure if this model is. So if anyone knows, I would appreciate the info. Thanks,

YP-211 Cueing Problems

Thanks for the reply. I will see if I can find some them. I disassembled the mechanism and really couldn't figure out where silicone oil would go so I greased it with some white lube and of course it didn't help. The tonearm comes down so fast it is frightening. I want to replace the cartridge as well but with this going on I don't want to risk it.
BTW, what cartridge is yours using if you don't mind?
Thanks again.
