-The cause:
+The cause of the squeaking was this failed lubrication. The shaft is eccentric and is used together with the thickness setting dial to change the distance between the rollers:

+The shaft can be carefully cleaned and if necessary fine grained sanding paper can be used for polishing off any scoring of the shaft. Finally, the shaft should be lubricated with a thin layer of grease.

+===== Assembly =====
+Now for the hard part. There are a lot of parts that need to fit in the correct holes in the frame legs. An extra pair of hands can be useful when fitting everything together.
