Thank you Gentlemen. Tig21er,Yes I believe the G is the American version. I will have a look under the rubber bumper. Thanks for the help. Rob,I think I'd be interested if you happen to find that part. Thanks again to both of you. Jim | ||

Hey Jim
You don't take the bumpers off on the 88. open the back cover, take out the 3 screws and you can remove the plastic plate covering the reel. carefully remove the ball bearings in the center of the hub then, with the cord out slightly, grasp the spring with needle nose pliers so it doesn't flip out of place and pull the entire reel assembly with the spring straight up. Be very careful that you don't let the spring go or jostle the housing as there are more ball bearings under the reel too. If the cord has been worked on before you will see a screw holding one side of the contact plate on. If not there will be 4 rivits of which you have to drill out the 3 nearest the plce where the cord goes into the reel. They are replaced with small self tapping screws afterward (very flat heads so as not to interfere with the contact strips). The cord will have to be de soldered then either replaced or cut back. Reverse the steps to re assemble. Doug | ||
