FEL joystick greasing

[Davidsan]

Just wondered how many of you grease the the little ball-knobs (whatever you call it) at the base of the FEL joystick that are on the control valve. The manual says to grease them, but there is a plate on top and the only access to them is from the outer sides. Any tips?

I use a spray lube.

Any which way one can get some lubricant on the parts.

I have a box over mine but it comes right off by removing 3 bolts.
