PDX Camera Service, copied here can probably set it right for you. But, 
before you send it off, sit down and watch a movie and play with the speeds 
shoot, wind change 1/25 to 1/5 or 1/10 shoot wind etc occqsionally, these 
old slow speed gear trains just need exercise to loosen up?cheaper than 
repairs, too.
