I think Rob aka texaskirbyguy did a restoration thread on a tradition. I'll post it.

I feel your pain...
...literally. My fingers were pretty sore after I put my Legend II's nozzle back together last fall. The belt lifter was especially painful. Fortunately, it only took me about 30 minutes to get the pieces back together properly. I think someone had had it apart previously because the little sticker covering the screw that holds the belt lifter together was missing when I got it and is still missing.

Wished I'd known not to use the newer knurled belts on the older 500 models sooner. I had two lifters literally come apart in my hands. | ||

human I can do one of those pretty easy as it is held together with a screw. This contraption has a clip that has to clip two pieces together. Bout the time you think you have it, the chrome piece works its way out and the whole assembly comes apart. | ||
