What size of screws are used in attatching the base and top moldings of the CH Yoke?

Thanks.

Hi Debby,

the Yoke is fine now. I had noticed that it was sitting at an angle when returned to center, and to save having to ship it back to the USA from UK for repair I opened it up to see what was wrong - 1 of the springs had ridden up slightly and was exerting pressure on the screw/washer above it causing the yoke not to center correctly. To fix this I had to use 1 of the larger screws from the base to get the spring back in the correct position. I then managed to lose another 2 screws. Everything is working as it should, apart from the top sometimes starts to lift because it is not fully secured.

PS, I know that the waranty is now invalid - I've had the yoke for 3 years.

Hi Mark

In that case, they are 1" Phillips Head Screws. Let me know if you cannot obtain them locally, and I'll be glad to mail a few out to you!

Hi Debby,

thanks. I'll try the local hardware store. Do you know what the diameter of the screws is - 3mm?
