The volume control with the wheel looks exactly as the one I had on my 111, and all these early radios shared a very similar chassis.
The pot was very worn, had several times the resistance against the declared value and went fully open after one light swab with alcohol. So if yours is still conducting at an acceptable level, maybe some fader lube Deoxit, but no cleaning.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
