Got bored today so took my 37-690 apart
#11

Hi Ted,
Don't think there is a blow by blow description on the net. The front end is pretty much the same as the 37-116 and 37-675. The '38 model are similar but have a different trimmer layout. Try searching these models. The general consensus is to remove the dial assy to get it out of the way, remove screws holding the sub chassis, unsolder wires holding in till it comes out while photographing and marking where they went. Reverse to reinstall.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

If you have rust between the vanes, I wonder how you get the NJ in between, and how you then wipe it off.morzh — 12:02 PM

If the noise is still there, the OPT might just be OK. Or so we hope.morzh — 12:01 PM

You would probably be replacing the OPT.RodB — 10:54 AM
