20' Series Wineguard handle fallen off

[Bellbirdweb]

Ok, so setting up the panda for guests to use tonight, and I thought I'd put up the TV antenna for them.

It now looks like this, and ideas what order it all goes together ?

The plastic handle doesnt seem strong enough to hold back the spring, but I guess it must be ??

G'day @Bellbirdweb there is a little grub screw that holds the handle on. Is a bit of a PITA to fiddle around with, just need a small allen key to tighten it. Be careful not to over tighten. Had the same thing happen to us recently, few minutes to fix once the right size allen key found.

Cheers

Happened to me too. The order of assembly is in the instructions

Thanks @greynt & @relgate, found instructions and all back together again.

@Bellbirdweb ... Had the same happen on our last trip. Order of replacement is Large rotating ring, plastic washer, spring then handle. Prepare to play around with doing up and undoing the grub screw with the allen key as @greynt said. Too high and you can't turn it.... Too low and it pulls off again

The instructions beat me to it LOL

Happened to us at handover a few years ago. Handover guy was a little embarrassed.

That would have been funny to see

Drilled into the shaft so the grub screw had more grip.
