The collet won't release. Worked fine for years. Now when collet opens it won't release material. The spring feels like it has plenty of tension. Not sure why it won't release.
It is Star VNC 32

try some lipstick on the taper and shank of the collet
We can try that while we try to order a new spring as well. Thank you.
