Hi all,
the head of the flash cannot stay up 45 degrees: it is too loose and fall down.
Does anyone know how to fix it?

many thanks
Francesco

The detente is worn/broken. You will have to dismantle the head to see what is what. As I have never worked on this model I cannot tell you how to proceed.

TAKE CARE WHEN WORKING ON ELECTRONIC FLSH UNITS.
Make sure the capacitor is fully discharged before removing any wiring to the flash tube.

Thanks for your answer.
Looks like something not so easy to fix...
