wombatie Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 I can't get the arm of my EX to stay up it is constantly crashing down, usually on my knuckles. How do I get it to stay up? Thanks Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docupton Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Looking from the front to rear, on the left hand side rear is a plate cover, remove this cover and adjust the nut inside till the arm stays up, usually only small adjustments are needed. x wombatie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvman44 Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Mine has no cover to remove, I simply loosen the nut and adjust the screw and tighten the jam nut. Lucky2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover2 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Mine also. No panel to remove. The adjustment screw is external. ( Newer model) I don't have to adjust it very often but when you do, Don't overdue it. Very small adjustments at a time. Just enough keep the arm up and no more. I think the manual says to go no more than 1/4 turn on the screw at a time but I have found that it takes less then that to get the results that I am looking for. Hope this helps. wombatie and Lucky2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Scroller Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 And mine is on the out side so easy to adjust Marg don't over tighten just enough to how it in place. wombatie and Lucky2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Page Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 Just to maybe help someone else some trouble the screw to do this with will break pretty easily. I found out the hard way the first time I adjusted mine and of course it is a special screw that has a spring and ball bearing in it. Seyco does have them but to me they are expensive. Just thought I would throw this out there. Phantom Scroller and wombatie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
