new clarinet with stiff tenon joints

Hello Everyone,

I have a student who is a pround owner of a new Buffet E13. As it's wooden I told him to only play it 30mins maximum a day for about 3/4 weeks.

Recently all the tenons have swollen and become very difficult to put together and take apart. Firstly I put it down to the wood changing in the blowing in process but it has been over a month now at it seems to have gotten worse. What would you guys recommend to cure this? His parents don't want to lose the warranty which they might if, as I've suggested, take it to the repair person.

Any thoughts that I can pass on would be greatly appreciated.
