Change Out an Outside Scissor

CHANGE OUT AN OUTSIDE SCISSOR

1. Remove six screws securing the outer skirt to the top frame and let the plastic down gently to rest on the base.
2. The top frame needs to be removed by loosening the 4 set screw s holding the chrome rods in the underside of the top frame. Slide the chrome rods forward until they are out of the two plastic bushings that ride on the rods.
3. Also, loosen the two set screws located in the top end of the scissors at the head end. They are located near the balloon “1” in the drawing. Slide the pins (#18) out to free the top frame and set it aside.
4. Locate where the outside scissor attaches to the base. The retainer clips (#17) need to be removed in order to slide the pins (#23) out and free the scissor.
5. The pivot pin (#24) also needs to be rem oved by removing the same type of retaining clip (#17) from one end of the pin to allow it to slide out and free the outer scissor.
