Set screw removal
#6

Thanks for the advice guys. I put the needle noses on these set screws and got nowhere, they're really on tight and I couldn't get much leverage. The good news is that I must have broken loose some crud in the system by trying and things are working almost normally now!
You're right Keith, I'm working on a 39-116 and was having trouble getting the secondary ratchet to return. Works most of the time now except when the spring is fully extended- it's a little slow coming around. You're right about the wiring too. I've replaced probably 70-80% of it so far. The worst were the leads from the power transformer, which literally turned to dust when I brushed against them!
