[TenTec] Argonaut 509

[Bill Ames]

I hope I have the right size. I wonder what we did for projects like this
before digital cameras. I hope the dial string is still good. I do not seem
to have any problems moving the main knob and the dial moves with it.

Its a small allen wrench, as I recall, to loosen the knobs.  If you 
have a bunch, just stick them in there and you'll find the right size.  
The dialstring can be a bit interesting, I'd take a nice clear photo of 
it before disassembly after you pull the face.  Its not hard but takes 
time and care to get just right.
