I was putting my new blue 97 back together yesterday and when I picked up the rekord unit I thought I saw a small silver thing fall off.
I looked over the unit fearing a pin fell out or something but all was good.
So the last screw, the rear trigger guard screw just fell in with no thread engagement.
After 30 minutes of searching I found a small nut that fits inside the rekord housing and sorta friction keeps it there. Once I glued the "dang" thing to the housing I was able to screw in the rear trigger guard screw.
It's not on any schematic I've seen.
-
The part number for it is N009. It isn't depicted on any drawings or schematics.
It is included when you buy a new trigger unit, or is available seperately at Chambers.
-
Most Rekord diagrams show the older version which had that rear screw going into a threaded hole in the casing.
Good that you found the nut and knew where to place it. :D
-
Good to know! All my googling today and I couldn't find it. It definitely isn't in my other rekord units.
-
A new one is like 3 bucks from Chambers plus postage, so good thing you found it.
Could probably find one at an RC car shop for 10 cents if you have one close.

I was planning on taking the rekord and screw to the hardware store tomorrow if I didn't find it. A couple drops of marine epoxy has it in place now. Just siliconed the screw and tightened it up. It's never leaving me again!

I had the same thing happen with my HW30. I lost the nut. I took the screw to Fastenal. They had the right one in stock.
-
Yup ... that nut is semi free floating in the trigger unit frame. Been quite a few years sense the trigger frame has been threaded for that rear trigger guard retention screw.

GOOD TO KNOW. Thanks

That Trigger Nut has to be watched at all time :P. I don't know of how many times they've fallen out and wandered off. Never lost one, but spent 15 minutes looking for it ... countless times.
My circa 1989 R10 has it welded on ... so that's a relief ;D.

I have solved this problem by going to Fastenal and buying a box of nuts and box of button Allen head screws that are the same size so I have plenty of replacements!!! more then I need LOL!! ::)

Yeah Mark, so far I've been too cheap to do that, but it sure would end much frustration as my eyes ain't getting any better for searching the floor for those dang nuts ;D

If a guy was to use a little bit of RTV silicone adhesive/sealer, available most everywhere these days, not only would it never wander off again, but the nature of the RTV allows a little flex when you go to start the threads.

LOL....been there, done that, however a 4mm nut from a home center will work just fine.
What I did was to slightly squeeze together the trigger housing frame at the location of the nut so the nut slides in with a friction fit.

Kirk - you'll find them when you step on them, I'm sure! :D
