      Anyone have any tricks on how to loosen a cannon pinion that is too tight?

      Thanks

        Hey chaplin37, Cant remember if I have ever had to do this, Frieds “watch repairers manual” mentions to use a smooth taper pin. Have a good day. William

          I use a smooth broach. It is tapered and works well. You have to go slow so you don’t over do it.
