We tried taking out the stick by removing the two flat head screw

the control stick to the rest of the linkage.

Mine is a 202, not the B model. It has a baggy cloth gaiter fitted to the
stick and secured round the raised lip surrounding the stick mount on the
cross bar. Consequently, the bearings etc remain nice and clean. This
year I lubed them using the sewing machine oil in a hypodermic oiler like
this:

Excellent tools - they don't leak and its easy to put small amounts of
oil exactly where yo need it. The oil reservoir is soft so a gentle
squeeze poots out an oil drop.

Try Glasfaser, http://www.streifly.de/ if you need a replacement gaiter.
