Rubber grips get sticky after a time instorage. How

Possible that the rubber has vulcanized due to exposure to heat, try and use a external coat or rubber cover or you will need to replace the handle.

How about using a leather cleaner?

Hi there,

If your grips have closed ends, cut a section off so you have plenty of grip left, but a hole where the bar ends can go through. Follow below procedure with the bar ends.

Bar ends are either have a screw or allen key head. Tap them into the ends of the bars with a rubber mallet. Tighten up the screw/bolt as this will make them expand keeping them inside the bars.

If you need to remove the grips:

Get some hairspray and lift the edge of the handlebar grips up, spray down until the grip is slippy and comes off. (Only use hairspray though, as once it is slippy, it will be very sticky in a minute so it will help when you replace it. Repeat for the other grip. Clean up the bars where the grips were. Refit the grips with more hairspray inside the grip and a little on the bars. Slide them on and leave for a good 6 hours so they stick.

Hope this helps mate, please vote for me :)

It sounds like the regulator is shutting down and preventing the grill from getting all of the propane it needs. to remedy your problem disconnect the tank and then reconnect it. Usually that is all it takes to get the regulator to work properly. If the problem continues just get a new hose with regulator attached.

Printer ink has dried out.Your lucky as these cartridges are some of the most inexpensive you can buy. Walmart has them.

ok as they are sticky it means you have eft them out side or in the rain
simply just put cling film over the top of the handles it realy works !! :)

The best and cheapest way I have found is to use 91% isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol...put a little on a paper towel, cloth, or cotton swab and rub the stick stuff off. I would also suggest putting on rubber gloves to keep the black stuff off your hands. Have fun.

There will also be some sort of surface mountad switch which activates the blower at a certain temp. With the unit unpluged and the heater off, take a meter and check for continuity thru the switch. there should not be any. Then start up the heater but keeping the blower unpluged, check again after a few minutes. This time your meter should show continuity.

The lens have a bad habit of falling out of the optic assemblies. They are held in with only a 2 dabs of glue. You can VERY CAREFULLY glue it back in. It is a plastic lens and affected badly by the wrong type of glue. Use a craft/modelling glue. DO NOT USE SUPER GLUE It will cloud the lens and render it useless.

1. Remove the lid and remove the 4 screws that retain the laser traverse assemly(it has a brown flexifilm attached to it). dont UNPLUG ANYTHING
2. Gently turn the entire optics assembly over by carefully maneuvering it(there is an earth strap to unscrew that may make it easier).
3. Wit the assembly facing upwards, refit the lens back into the laser assembly, ensuring that it is sitting entirely flat
4. Then use a tiny dab of glue( I use a Tarzan's Grip, a craft glue ) to EITHER SIDE of the lens making sure that it is dabbed on both the lens and the mount that it fits into
5. Let the glue go off(couple of hours)
6. Clean the lens with a cotton tip moist with windex(glass cleaner), and then again another dry one to be sure there is no smear left.
7. Remount the traverse assembly and test

Check that the rubber suspension mounts have not perished also If they have collapsed(they should sit within about 1mm of the retainer screws when refitted), they will need to be replaced also. You will need to get them from a Pioneer service center. They are about $1.00 each.

APPLY SPARINGLY. Glue everywhere or on the face of the lens can easily destroy the coating.

This method works 4 out of 5 times without having to do the grating adjustments on the optics. And save you $100 for new optics and time to set them up. Good luck, and dont forget to rate me "FixYa" If you need more advice on these players... i have fixed hundreds of them. They are well worth repair and hard to replace with anything similar. .
