See the second blog post for March 8 for details and pictures.

I can disassemble it to the long bar, which I probably will do, because that at least gives me better access to the coil.Carl Claunchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00359841432891565909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8869371566442567811.post-53241189558368401442015-03-08T18:53:36.377-07:002015-03-08T18:53:36.377-07:00Apparently the unit was never intended to be field...Apparently the unit was never intended to be field-servicible, only replaceable, as the maintenance manual only describes removal and replacement.Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03609225990173046534noreply@blogger.com
