Mirror set screws

[GARY MINKER]

The best mechanic trick is to PB them, let them sit, warm the knuckle to about 120 degrees gently, let it cool completely, repeat 2 to 3 times then tighten first, then loosen. Gentle persuasion with a SMALL impact wrench forward then backward may help to vibrate the capillary action of the PB. Gary --- On Mon, 4/27/09, jvredden@... wrote: From: jvredden@...

I can call a friend and see if more are available.

The PO had the mirrors set to his specifications and it serves my purposes for the most part. But, I wanted to tweak them and was unable to loosen hex screws on the bottom or side. I sprayed the set screws with PB Blaster and let it set overnight. I put a breaker bar on the hex key and was still unable to budge them. Any thoughts???? Jerry 85 PT40
