trimmer collet removal
« on: January 16, 2009, 08:07:34 AM »
I bought a used older RCBS trimmer2. It has a collet in the collet holder I want to take out, but can't! how in the hell do you get those things out. It looks like they screw into the holder. manual does'nt say anyhting other "easy removal".

The collet should be just a slide in type fit , if its been in there for awhile , it may just need a spray with WD-40 and a good tap to jar it loose .

This may also help .
