I have an Emmons S12 ext E9th push-pull. I need a flag for the LL knee lever that raises the E’s, 4&8. As it is, I can just barely reach it.

Michael Yahl’s site has some nice flags for KL’s pushing right, such as the one lowering 2&9. However, they simply aren’t configured to work on KL’s pushing left. I know because I got one and it doesn’t work.

Any out there? Or a diagram or idea on making one?

Thanx.

Eric, I have two push pulls both double necks, but my F levers (E to F raises) are positioned really close to the back wall of the steel body, can you reposition the knee lever? Here's a pic of mine:

It's been a few years since I've owned one, but IIRC Emmons flags are just basically aluminum angle. You'd just have to figure where to drill a hole in the lever and flag for attachment and cut a notch for folding.

Basically, the opposite of the Emmons RKL flag you already have....that is if you turned the flag 180 degrees end for end.

I'm betting you're not the only one who has wanted this flag on LKL out of the hordes of Emmons players through the years.

Might check with Lynn Stafford or Billy Knowles for a ready made one.
