Reo Woodville Problem With Fire Button

[keepsmiling]

Hi I am trying to help a friend. Can you identify the problem here with the part where the fire button hits that plate above the bottle. That part spins freely, and they do not see a way to tighten it.

If the firing pin/lever is loose, the screw attaching it to the body will tighten it.

If it's the contact plate, the nipple that the bottle tube surrounds (ie, the bottom of the 510 assembly) need tightening (rotate it clockwise - you can do this by simply rotating the bottle tube while it's snugged up around the nipple).

Pull the tubing off the nozzle
Position the plate and tighten the nozzle below the plate with needle-nose pliers

......and some mineral oil inside the mod wouldn't hurt. She looks a bit dry.

As said above, if it's the piece that the button presses to make contact with the "plate", it can be tightened. When she received it, she should have gotten 2 hex wrenches. The thicker one is for tightening that piece, the thin one is for the 510 adjustment.

Or, if it's the plate that spins, remove the tube and tighten the nipple to keep it in place.

Thanks everyone!
