[QUOTE="belladonna, post: 242340, member: 852"] Bogger, That is the wrong screw; from your photo it is the one adjacent to it that you use to tension the coil to working position. This Acme thread screw just turns out anti clockwise, then you can separate the blue (coil side) to black (shaft side) of the joint. It will pull apart about 12mm and you can see the internal curly cable. I wipe the two surfaces of the rotating joint, clean the acme screw of the bolt and clean the threaded hole. Push the joint back together carefully, you might have to rotate slightly as you go and refit the screw. Sit the detector on a table with the coil flat on the table before you separate the joint. I am thinking of making a small hose for the vacuum and see if it will suck some of the dust from inside the shaft. Has anyone seen these screws at a suppliers anywhere, I would like a couple of spares. Ian. [/QUOTE]
