Stupid question,
Have you tried to clean and lube and oil it?
A drop of labelle clipper oil at each point the rod connects, and to the crosshead.
If that doesn't take care of the problem take the shell off. There's screws for the couplers front and rear. If you remove the screw, the shell comes off easy. Carefully lift the rear of the shell first. The front cow catch brace arms may cause it to stick. You may have to seperate them from the boiler chest by pulling outward.
After you get the shell off, you'll see a helical gear attached to the motor. Put a drop of greese on the gear.
Putting the shell back on is a bit tricker because the screws I've had in all 3 of mine were not quite long enough. If you can't get the screw to catch the thread, twirl the plastic coupler covering with the tip of a #11 xacto blade. That will create a small divit which will allow the screw to set further in
