HS2 Getaway Ramp

[chris wilson]

Hi All.
Some help and advice if possible. On my HS2 Getaway the up/down ramp in the top right hand corner of the playfield has come apart. The hinged section has broken away from the main section. What is the best way to try and fix this? does it need welding? or a new ramp?

Cheers

Should be possible to fix. Pictures might help on what the problem is and how best to fix it.

Image as attached. The hinged section has come away from the main corner section.

Looks like you might have lost the o ring clips that hold the ramp flap section in place. Have you checked in the manuel to see what' missing from what you have there ?

Am i seeing it correctly, has the weld come away from the ramp flap ?

Dont think there is anything missing. The pivoting hinge is still attached to the ramp. Looks like it was welded in place originally as there are no other fixings. Just 3 circle imprints where the hinge was attached to the corner piece.

Go to a local garage with a small MIG welder (body shop should have one) and get them to spot on the right pin pivot, should cost £5 if they charge you, take a bottle of wine in the car, or a crate of 3 for £20 beer as they probably won't charge you.

Sounds like a good plan. Cheers
