## Discrepancy

(CAN) AFTER TAKEOFF THE PILOT COULD NOT SELECT THE GEAR UP BECAUSE THE GEAR SELECTOR HANDLE WOULD NOT MOVE. AFTER LANDING, MAINTENANCE DISCOVERED THE HANDLE LOCK OUT SOLENOID WAS STIFF TO OPERATE BECAUSE OF HEAVY GREASE ON THE SOLENOID SHAFT. THE SOLENOID WAS CLEANED AND LUBRICATED FOR PROPER OPERATION TO BE RESTORED.
