Default Treestand Lubrication

Getting ready to get the stands up (running behind schedule) and I've noticed just some little squeaks and stuff between the moving parts. I was going to spray them down with WD but that stuff stinks too much.Is there more of a scent free lube to use on these?

They make a scent-free oil that is sold in hunting stores. If I can find mine....I'll give you the brand name.
