I have a set here for the 250. Valuable far beyond the cost! I am confindent enough in the 255 diagram that I should not need one for a 285. The rest of the paperwork indicates this as well.
No, there is no diagram for the swivel light. I redid it a long time ago and it is in good nick. The routing is simple, but it was a trick to get the tensioner spring in just the right spot to keep it from tangling in the guide. I started cleaning the 285 and pulled the light wires back slightly that go down to the selector switch. Only one is intact. The rest are broken off just below the top surface. I can now easliy get at the rest, splice on new lengths then pull them all back up to their proper positions. I will have to procure some lamps. I could use 3 of them.
Interesting to note that the push button light is frosted and has a cap of black paint on its nose. I am sure this one would best be diffused a bit.
