| Idiot with a question, Disassembling a top-fire joystick to install it. |
| (1/1) |
| Gatt:
Ok, I've been at this for an hour and I'm not getting anywhere. Can't figure out how to take a Happs top-fire apart to install it. Pulled the E-ring but the button assembly is preventing me from pulling the shaft out, and I can't figure out how to dismantle the assembly. Already pulled the micro-switches to get at the assembly, but not having any success. Could someone knowledgable help me? |

If it's the "Super" top-fire, you have to pull really hard on the disk piece at the bottom that contacts the fire microswitch. Add a small amount of twist while you are doing it to get the best results. It is connected to a plastic shaft inside, so don't get TOO violent with it though. After you've had it apart a few times, it's alot easier. Look at the exploded view HERE to see how it all goes together. |

That did it! Thanks! Was afraid of trying that before, didn't want to snap something important. Much appriciated! |
