FT817 ND VFO VFO spindle problem


 

Hello everyone the VFO tuning control complete with spindle came off and a spring and some other small pieces fell out.

I stripped the 817 down and removed the front and the rotary actuator.

I had a broken front from a u/s 817, I worked out how to get the rubber outer off and I can see a hole, which I assume has a grub screw holding it to the spindle.

The working 817 just needed the nut taken off remove it.

I want to put the complete tuner in the working 817 but dont know what to use to loosen the grub screw.

Can one of you fine ladies or gentlemen help me with the information please.

Thank you
KInd Regards
Mike
