Has anyone ever converted a DAM Quick 270 to bailless? If so could someone please explain the process? Thanks!
I have not done the 270 yet but i have done the 330.

The 270 is a piece of cake , i would remove the screw on top of the bail and the nut on the back side . that will free the bail wire . just reinstall the nut for the roller .
Heck i just done it faster than i could write the procedure . Try it first this way to see if you like it than you can refine the arm later or leave it and you can always put the bail back on ....
You can also ask Fred for the parts and you don`t have to disassemble a good bail , just a quick switch , and you can grind off the top hole to clean it up some ...
I will add more to this thread , wile looking for something else ,I came across this :
There is a part number for a stock manual pick up for the 270 and 275 , it is # 8460
Here is a translated instruction sheet and picture that i got off http://www.saschas-sammler-homepage.de/
