I have found a possible fix in the archives, but it just blithely says "remove the top".....Ha!. I've taken all the screws out that I can find, but the lever wind is still holding it down on one side, whilst at the other side nothing budges. Are there any hidden screws? I found another archive with instructions for undoing the lever wind with a piece of rubber and a section of broomstick (honestly!) but still nothing budges. So could anyone tell me a STEP by STEP idiot's guide to every stage. I have downloaded an exploded view. which is of little help, so please speak slowly if you reply.
