Hi, I picked a TT Century 21 Digital up at a hamfest in 2019 and am now turning
my attention to it. Admittedly its the 3rd one to arrive here, with hopes of
turning the Digital and the 2 analog ones into one or two working rigs.
In all cases the PTO is the first thing to have to look at - frozen like Captain
Highlanders Fishsticks, HI.
OK.. take off front panel. Makes sense.... BUT.....
the small knobs don't have the set-screw hole for a screw or Allen key set-screw
access. What? One of the knobs (already showing a couple cracks/gaps) has an
access for knob release.
But all the other main knobs (small round) don't show an access hole. How do I
get the knob off? I thought possibly (oddly and strangely) they might be
friction fit with a little metal tab holding them to the shaft tightly, but
they don't sure seem like that.. a little bit of pulling and a bit of
screwdriver leverage (carefully.. since we know these things crack) don't seem
to show any easy friction fit release.
Anyone encounter these seemingly reluctant knobs before?
tnx
