Damper Rod Replacement
For 8 months prior to February of 1994, the ’93 series was made with a threaded rod
installed in a threaded hole in the inner top as per earlier models made from 1990 - 1993. In
February of 1994, the thread system that had a tendency to jam was updated to the current
system with no threads. These instructions show you how to replace the old damper with the
new system.
Models affected: Small 2460 & 2181; Large 2461 & 2183; Extra-Large 2462 & 2184
