Innards of wedge type QCTP?

[hman]

A member of another forum I'm on was asking about a problem with a QCTP. I assumed he meant the piston type, which I'm familiar with, so I wrote up a quickie on how to disassemble & service. No joy. He needs info on the wedge type.

Does anybody know of a link to either a parts diagram, or possibly some info/photos on how to disassemble/service them?

Many thanks!

There is/was a topic on the wedge post very early in this site's history. Will have to search for it.

So you want the info given to you here so you can post it on another forum?:nuts:

I'd like to see what the innards of both types look like too!

There is not much to them. Just a large screw and 4 wedges. Deburr and lube the screw threads and the 4 wedges as well if required.

Instruction Manual from Phase II. Found on the web.

By the way, I'm always careful to paraphrase and not give out names when cross-posting, unless I've secured prior permission. At least, that's what I understand of "netiquette".

OK ... Your wish is our command!

Pierre (pdentrem) posted a PDF of what a wedge-type QCTP looks like.

Here's a PDF I just got done with, explaining the innards of the piston-type QCTP.
