Lew's BB1 thumb screw question...

Post by OkobojiEagle » Sat Jan 09, 2016 12:42 am

I just received a used BB1L and am having difficulties loosening the plastic thumb screw which holds the side plate on. My Revos have a metal thumb screw with a flat head slot. This BB1 thumb screw is plastic and has no slot. I'm looking for successful techniques loosening it. Thank you

I have a BB1 Pro, it's just a spring loaded pin, it just pulls out enough to release the side plate.

Pulls out? doesn't turn! Now I feel a little foolish, but better to ask than break it? Thanks
