Tom Dowler Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Hey everyone, Have searched the internet far and wide for this info but hoping someone here knows the answer. I have a 1960 H16 REX which I've been using for a while with the hand-wound spring motor. I picked up an electric motor on ebay and am struggling a little to figure out how to install it. The electric motor's mounting screws line up perfectly with a mounting point to the left of the fps selector, and the center of the spring motor's hand winder. Which would imply that I need to remove the hand-winder to install the motor. Is this indeed the case and does anyone have any instructions for the steps to uninstall said hand-winder so I can install the motor?Thanks Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Simon Wyss Posted February 18, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted February 18, 2019 The winding crank is attached to the mechanism by a Left Hand M 5 thread. To remove it you fold it up onto the lug, hold it against the internal stop, i. e. take away slack clockwise, and free it with a dry smack on the handle clockwise.
