I have probably spent as much time as anyone messing around with the new 620. I have made radical changes to mine from starting with duct tape to bolts and zip ties.
In short, it will never be as good as an old 620. Mine is at least useable at this point but with 4 other 620's in the house it is just collecting dust and most likely, will never be used again.
Here is what I did.
- Removed the rods
- Attempted the binder clip method-No success
- Tried Duct taping the side rails to the outer rail-worked till the tape gave out.
- Drilled holes through the outer rail to match with the holes on the inner rail and put bolts through each hole and tightened till the field was flat across its entirety
- Later found out that I could of used zip ties in place of the bolts.
- zip tie the cord to the field so that the motor doesn't move when you work the switch
- Lastly, drilled a hole through the outer rail next to the motor and ran a bolt in so that it touched the motor. it now acts as a second speed adjustment and actually gave the field enough umph to be useable.
Do the last four steps or send it back for a refund. I support Miggle all I can but this one is quite frankly...a stinker!!
