hi.

I was wondering, is there a tool to press in the one and the two small spring loaded pins for when you remove the gears from the main shaft. its easy enough when you put it back together, its the disassembly thats fiddly. was or is there any tools available to press those in?

 

thanks in advance

Martin

Just some stiff wire - get a scrap of 2.5mm ‘twin and earth’ and strip some of the copper wire out of it.
Alternatively sacrifice a couple of old watchmakers screwdrivers

currently using a couple of screwdrivers. thought there might be some soft of triangle shaped tool or something that could be wedged down the press the pin in while rotating :-)
