Help with 2215 time base knob issue


 

Good morning!
I¡¯ve got an early 2215. It has a broken outer time base knob. That knob has a broken collar and nut that grabs hold of the shaft so the time base can be changed. It¡¯s different than the newer 2215A scope. Is it possible to adapt the newer style knob to that shaft assembly?

This is from a Wizards Workshop article on the subject:

//
2215 B SEC/DIV KNOB CHANGED
AS REQUIRED, REPLACE ALL COLLET STYLE KNOBS THAT HAVE BECOME LOOSE

A new B SEC/DIV knob using setscrews now replaces the original knob
that used the collet method for securing to the shaft. The new knob
should be used whenever replacing or repairing this knob.

The variable SEC/DIV knobs also have been changed. Use the new part
number for replacement knobs

KNOB______OLD P/N____ REPLACED BY
SEC/DIV___366-1840-00 366-1840-02
____________214-3158-00
____________220-0572-00
2213 VAR__366-1405-09 366-2054-01
2215 VAR__366-1405-08 366-2052-01
