Hi all

I have searched this site and in Google and now can not find the specs for adjusting the drive plates for my cox scout xl28.

Does anyone know the gap to set the drive plates. From memory 1 is slightly bigger than the other. as in forward drive plate has bigger gap to drive cone than the reverse plate.

Thanks
Nigel

From approximately 2005 models Cox switched to the use of two feeler gauges instead of one. When was your machine made?
