Esam 3300 Coffee Grounds Do Not Fall As Disks?

My ESAM 3300 works well, lately it breaks the used grounds rather than discard as diskettes into the grounds container. I have tried everything, cleaning the infuser & inside of the machine. Used lubricant to lubricate with food grade lubricant all the parts. Every time I clean, the next coffee made the grounds will be in a intact diskette. The next time I use the machine is when the grounds will scatter. I have done this again and again same results. I do not know if cleaning the infuser resets the machine? Please help it is a pain to clean after every coffee!!
