[Digital BW] Re: Resetting 3800 carts- first attempt

2007-12-09 by Steven Karafyllakis

Thanks for the correction Ernst; I didn't look closely enough to see if 
I'd punctured the cross-piece (it's a bit hard to see in there) or 
simply pushed it out of its track and jammed the backflow valve ( a 
small bit of poetic justice in my view) open with it. It works, and its 
fairly easy to do with the right tool-I used a jeweller's screwdriver 
sharpened to a point.
