| I have a later model L120 volume pedal (bronze textured finish). I want to remove the shaft/axel that holds the top movable section to the base section. Seems they have a plastic casing and cap that now surrounds the shaft/axel...it appears to inhibit the removal. Has anyone removed one of these shafts and if so...how did you do it??? |

| The shafts are Delrin and can be easily removed by removing 4 small screws in the center of the feet and the bottom plate will come off and allow access to the Phillips head screw that is directly above the axle. Loosening the screw will allow the axle to slip out. |

| Thanks Jim...I didn't realize the shafts were solid Delrin. Better safe by inquiring first! |

Done several times without any problem...
First you need to loosen the screw located under the bottom cover plate.
Then, just hammer away the axle using a pencil-like wood stick
