Installing the Renner Damper Back Action

The damper, or back action was often overlooked or neglected during action restoration. Although the parts themselves would warrant replacement, no replacement system was available. In response to this need Renner produced an underlever system kit, and in this class Karen will teach you how to assemble and install it. The class will include many tips, developed as a result of numerous installations, which will help you work with the basic booklet provided by Renner.
