Thank you for this. I bought a set last month and they probably need the same fix. They are super hard to operate. Thank you

Good video Roger. That should help some folks.
It’s not cool having to fix something you just bought. It’s seems to happen more and more nowadays. Nice fix. Enjoy the new tool👍
Yes china gets things close
Good tip. Haven't broken mine out of the box yet. Good to know. 👍
Glad it helped
Sad to see the original Lancaster's having this type of problem. I expect it from the cheap Chinese knock-offs.
What a strange design. Seems like a simple linkage would have been better. Who knows. Excellent fix though.
nice fix, i have a set of those, mine are ok
