I've noticed that too. I've opened up one of my contollers once, because some
sand grains got in between the speed knob and the housing and I had to clean
it. I didn't check what you've asking about, but I think there is not mutch
risk involved if you take a unit apart for yourself. I din't encounter any
problems disassebling and reassembing the unit. The top lid is hold in place
by screws only. There is some lubrcation grease under the speed knob, the only
care you have to take is to make sure that you dont pick up any dirt with the
greasy underside of that knob.
