Fixed Pants™ Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 :$.My guess is; take the lever off and unscrew the TPA loads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carnagr Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 Sounds pretty solid to me. It's plastic, so I'd imagine the TPA would strip out/break before the lever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhups Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 This way works althought the TPA will be shagged:Get a pair of plyers and grip the screw bit that screws into the red tpa bit then just spin the lever around until it comes out.
