Hey Guys,

I have a '51 split that I need to readjust the semaphore knob to the correct position. I do not want to break it. Anyone give me a pointer on flipping this knob around?

I'm used to the later knobs that just unscrew.

Let me know,

Chris

The two knurled nuts in the back hold it in. Remove those nuts and flip the switch. Then, retighten the knurled nuts
