or removing the securing screws (gs.2,3 & 4).
THIS WILL REVEAL:
- Remove original components, noting carefully the order in which they were removed.
- Clean inside the ratchet head to remove any dirt or swarf and replace the components with the contents of the repair kit, ensuring that
the original order is repeated.
NOTE: That the ratchet pawls in the Lever Change kit are marked ‘L’ and ‘R’ and should be replaced in the same position as the
originals.
- When rebuilding the Gear to Gear head, it may be useful to employ a pair of tweezers to hold the ball in place between the spring and
pawl.
- With all internal components in place apply a small amount of grease, close the head back up and resecure.
