|
|
|
Hello. I have to put my XG into storage and decided to bleed all tubes to avoid any surprises. What kind of tip one need to take this small screw out. I have already stripped one of them and do not want to do the same to the other. I did this twice already for my PGs and this screw was different. Thank you. Robert.

Hello Mark. It seems to me that PG screw were smaller, diameter I mean. So they are Philips heads. OK. I will try to get a different tip. Thanks. Robert.

Well, it's been about 4 years since I played with an Air Coupled tube to bleed it, so take my comments with a grain of salt.

If you dont want to strip the heads, use DECENT QUALITY tools, not cheap junk chinese/thailand made tools.

Hello. Thanks for comments. I had found out that Philips #1 tip was needed. I have done two of them and put in storage. I am still using, over three years now, my PG6Plus. I still waiting for it to "die" to switch to XG but having built a custom enclosure for it I hope it will last forever. XG is much bigger. Robert.
