Gritty gears on Servo

Hi,

Does anybody own a Sanwa SRG-CR servo?
When I turn the servo to the left by hand, I can feel the gear train is gritty, but not so the other way round. Normal operation is also fine. This has been like this since it was brand new.

Is this normal?

Don't run one, but it's probably not normal. Would dissassemble/clean/lube and reassemble.

Would suspect there's something going on inside the servo. May be having some kind of pending breakage of some kind since its only on one side.
