Effing C-clips!!!

Post by geldra »

Has anyone got any advice on how to install the c-clip on the bottom of a Seimitsu stick? I bought a c-clip tool to prise apart the clip but it’s still not enough to get it around the shaft (fnarr).

Thinking maybe the clip itself is too small.

I prise it apart enough to get it to partially over the end, then use a screwdriver and hammer to gently tap it until it drops into place.

Those are internal Circlip pliers you have.. it would have been much easier with an external set...makes it awkward for you using that type.

You can buy those combi kits with reversible heads cheap enough.
