Question on SF A2 LED Assembly

How do you remove it [the LED assembly]?

Does it require removing the three small Phillips head screws? If so, where can you get the right size screw driver?

The driver than came with my glasses cleaning kit does the job.

Yes, you remove the three screws.

Thanx Al.

They are very small slotted screws not philips.

Mine are Philips.

No tools, No skill, No eyesight ... all in all, makes it very tough to remove.

Actually some are Philips screws - mine are. I guess they switched at some point, but which ones came first, I don`t know. My guess would be the Philips type since my A2 is from pretty early on. They are really tiny and quite delicate so it`s probable that they switched to slotted ones following some stripping of the heads in assembly/dissasembly...?

Try your local opticians - they`re sure to sell the itsy bitsy screwdrivers seperately. Either that, or electronics places. Might have to buy a set of different ones but they do come in handy for all sorts of things.

The slotted came first. The change was made pretty early on.

Sears....

Micro screwdriver set...

Not wimpy...

Works well...

Only a few clams...

I stand corrected, thought they all were slotted. It makes sense, I almost stripped mine while scuffing the LEDs to get rid of the rings.

Success ...

Mine is definitely a Philips head unit. Radio Shack sells small screw drivers sets [6 drivers/set] for about $5.00. They have both slotted and Philips sets. The 1.6 mm fits perfect.

I understand that the screws will be switched to "Allen" socket head screws.

This should make them easier to screw back in...
