Hi folks - was wondering if one of you guys could shed some light on a machinery breakdown problem I have had. I have an old Cassese CS810 underpinner which had a problem when firing - the metal block blew off the back of the firing button. I have put the components back together and put it back in place, and the machine is now firing again, but as the block is not screwed on in any way, I assume that this is going to happen again unless a component is replaced. Is it just that the tiny rubber washer inside is worn, or is the problem a bit more complex? I'll be on the phone to Lion on Monday morning, but wondered if any of you have experience of this?
Thanks

Rob

Hi Rabbie Side Burns,

The part is not repairable you will require a new switch.

Kind Regards

Thanks very much Mitreman - at least I know what I am dealing with now. The underpinner is still operating but I will get the switch replaced asap.

Thanks once again.
