Subject: Screw problem





Hi,

here I'm back with my very "personal" solution to my problem ... :-))

I decided first to try to recut the nut fixed to the frame. If this hadn't
worked, I'd have had to think about other solutions... But it worked!!
Because the nut isn't straight "soldered" to the frame (it already fell off
one day), the recutting also cut a "Gewinde" (the aspect, that makes screws
work) into the frame (only a little bit). This helps the screw to be fixed.
Now, when using a "Sprengring" (a small spring) there should be no
problems, unless you don't screw it very brutal...

I also bought a new crash bow, exactly the newest one from Hepco&Becker. It
looks similar to this:

---------------\
  \XXXXXXXXXXXXX\
   \XXXXXXXXXXXXX\
    \-------------\
     \             \
      \             \
       \             \
       --------------------------

It has four big advantages:
1.   It looks great!!
2.   There's a connection between the upper and lower at the front.
3.   It is not screwed with the cooler screws. There comes a plate with,
which is screwed to the frame (exactly at the part of the frame where the
cooler screws are screwed into.
4.   Each part (left and right) is screwed to both connections of the motor
 safe.

If some is interested, I kept the part number. Price is about ATS 1.700,-,
I got it for 1.500.

greetings,

Achim
