Examine

Stuck slides on brass instruments are usually the result of neglect: infrequent cleaning and lubrication and, sometimes, improper lubricants.  Also, examine the slides and connected tubing for dents, as well as for loose braces and solder joints.  Don't try to free slides that have any of these issues, or slides that are adjacent to loose braces, as this could lead to further damage.  Please refer these jobs to a professional repair shop.
