Default Re: Grundig TK141 advice

Thinking about it a bit more then I think as long as the top and bottom tabs on the left side of the brake lever are correctly fitted in the slots in the top and bottom decks then it would not be necessary to slacken the 2 right hand securing screws for the top deck, which is good as ideally do not want to disturb the top deck at all.

In this case all that should be required is to remove the spool holder and move the brake lever back to its correct location, would probably have to bend down a little the raised tab so that the brake lever goes over the tab, then bend the tab back up which will then stop the lever from moving inwards.

The 2 circlips on the spool holder shaft do not fit in grooves in the shaft, it is just a case of gently priseing them along and off the end of the shaft, for the first circlip be careful not to damage the plastic tape counter pulley when priseing the top circlip off.
