Fellow photographers,
I purchased a used Technal 500 and the pin/screw that connects the rear metal arm to the end of the top bar was missing on each side. The pin/screw I'm referring to goes through the side of the handle arm then through the metal strut/bar and finally into the side of the top metal bar with the know that adjusts downward pressure. I measured the hole and a 1/4" x 1.25" screw fits in the hole perfect, but does not allow the top arm to swing forward fully.
If someone here that owns one would be so kind as to remove this pin/screw and post a picture, I'd appreciate it! I need to find a replacement for both sides. there is a small set screw that locks this "missing" pin/screw in place.
Thanks!
Dan
