Hi everyone,

I recently won a few eBay auctions on some used pedals, and well, they arrived in less-than-perfect condition.

In particular, some of the knobs seem to be loose on the pedals. Like rather that a really slow, smooth twist, they almost turn effortlessly and seem very loose.

Is there something in particular I can do to tighten the knobs? The pedals with the problems are an FZ-3 and a PW-2.

Thanks!

The FZ-3 is a strange beast. Mine feels the same way yours does. I'm almost certain that it's normal as mine is NOS.

The PW-2 should feel "normal". I've replaced the pots on mine, so it feels OK. No idea what the original ones felt like...

Hm, interesting. So my Level knob on the FZ-3 is the one that seems to spin pretty freely. Is that the same for you too?

On the PW-2, the free-spinner is the Fat knob. It actually feels like it's rattling some, but the nut holding the turnscrew in place is tight. Is there anything I can tighten if I open it up?
