Help with Hipshot ultralites please

[fretmeister]

Just had a set of Ultra Lites delivered to go on my Sandberg.

I have to reverse one of them but there are no instructions. Before I just disassemble the entire thing, can anyone give me any pointers?

Ta!

I seem to remember you don't have to disassemble the entire thing - just remove the hex screw (using the handy allen key which I hope they provided, as it's a weird imperial size which evades me at the moment), then pull the button and worm gear out. Put it in the other way round, replace the hex screw. Watch out for plastic washers.

No Allen key provided

I do have a shitload of them so I'll have go through my collection.

Thank you!

All fitted and over 1/2 lb weight loss on the bass!

Lovely!
