Disassembly/Reassembly Procedures: Disassembly/Reassembly Procedures for Radio Knobs 7-11
7.5.1 Channel Select Knob
This section explains how to remove and install the Channel Select knob.
NOTES:
• Remove the battery from the radio before removing or installing the Channel Select knob.
• The Channel Select knob is a two-part kit, consisting of a knob and an insert. Once an insert is
removed, it cannot be used again. Therefore, remove an insert only if the channel select switch
must be replaced, or if the control top must be removed from the chassis.
• When the channel select insert must be removed, a new one must be used for reassembly.
7.5.1.1 Remove the Channel Select Knob
1. Hold the radio so that the top of the radio faces upward, and the front of the radio faces you.
2. Grasp the Channel Select knob (32) and pull it upward, while rocking the knob back and forth,
until it is free from the Channel Select knob retainer insert (36), or the insert is free from the
shaft.
3. To remove the knob retainer insert (36), place the tip of a thin-bladed screwdriver into the slot
of the insert, and pry the insert open by twisting the screwdriver. This will allow you to easily
remove the insert from the channel select switch shaft. Discard the removed insert.
7.5.1.2 Install the Channel Select Knob
1. Hold the radio so that the top of the radio faces upward, and the front of the radio faces you.
2. Place a new Channel Select knob retainer insert (36) on the channel select shaft, orienting
the “TOP” marking on the insert upwards and aligning the insert’s D-shaped hole with the D-
shaped shaft. Press downward firmly on the insert until the top of it is flush with the top of the
channel select shaft.
3. Place the Channel Select knob (32) on the retainer insert (36), aligning the three ribs of the
insert to the corresponding slots on the inside of the knob. Press downward firmly on the knob
until it seats securely in place.
