I have been adjusting the headlight set up on the D Special (and yes, have consulted the 814 manual op 540 pp393-400).
So far so good. All appears to be in place, with one exception. I can't figure out how the small rod (that connects the cross section bar/lever to the main headlight) attaches to the headlight housing. The end of the rod is like a rivet, and is not threaded. I had figured that it was a simple "pop on/press in" mechanism, but it keeps coming loose. As a result the headlight assembly swings up and down, against the movement of the car...
There doesn't appear to be any diagram or cross section which explains it. I am sure it is very straightforward (which makes it all the more frustrating), but I can't for the life. Maybe a plastic clip has worn or perished (or gone missing)?? Can anyone advise....?
