By pass handle
« on: March 05, 2020, 03:19:46 AM »

Hello All   Have an older E-2400 and the by-pass handle has frozen up.  Will attempt to take apart and lube today.  Any thoughts?

Post pictures of what you find. I haven't run into the E classics much down here in VA so I'm not much help.

Okay folks  Used some Blaster and WD 40, a lot effort, and got it working freely.  The shaft going in from the handle, goes through and onto the linkage and on to the damper.  No real access, however seems to work a lot better.  Sorry no pics.

I believe CB has a zirk kit that can modify that handle shaft so it can be periodically greased

Thank you Boilerman for the info.  Working like new for the time being.  Six more weeks and that will be a wrap for this year.
