Title: Diezel DZ30D Handle/Knob
Post by: ebraker on November 13, 2014, 03:55:25 AM
I have a DZ30D that works very well, but will need a new crank knob shaft at some point.  Buy new, or is there an alternative such as threading the crank and using an appropriate size rod/bolt to replace the pressed in knob shaft? 
PS: am upgrading drags discs and replacing level wind shaft and follower.
