I have used a light grease marketed by Stihl for the gears in electric saws
and hedge trimmers with good success. Fargo sells helicoid grease in a
couple of weights too.

Hi Don,
This page may be helpful: http://tinyurl.com/cgcxz
The fellow who put it together mentions a couple of types of grease, but
only one specifically by name. He has a lint to email at the
bottom of the
page. If you drop him a line he may be able to give you specifics. He
mentions that he uses some nice Castrol synthetic grease he got
from a bike
shop.
