Bruce, Oh, I see now. On the vru models it refers to a sliding lever in the right corner on top of the deck. It may be partly under or all the way under the cam gear from what the exploded view show. I checked the other model number and it looks like both units have the same gear. Hope this helps Jason Mouton Mouton's Electronics 1116 Center St. New Iberia, LA 70560 337-364-1641 Phone/Fax moutons@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce Youmans" <youmans@xxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, November 13, 2002 12:39 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: Phillips VRZ360 Mechanism Locks Up > > Jason, > > The reference to B81 was actually for the Phillips VRU series, VRU 362, 364, > 422, etc. Since these all look the same I thought that the VRZ360 also used > the same reference.
