Nice Steel,

Lonnie;
In addition to my Emmons SD-10, I have 3 Dekleys. A D-10, and two S-10's, one of which is supposedly a student model.
If you need any help with the animal feel free to e-mail me.
Looks lile you have all 4 knee levers so yer good to go.
There is a Dekley owner's manual available on the web. Can't remember where at the moment. I think it's at George L's website. If you need it I can find it and give you the link to download the .pdf file.
For fun and entertainment, when you get to working on the underside, start replacing them itty bitty bellcrank setscrews with #6 socket head capscrews. Stops the hex stripout problem. |
