As someone suggested put a few drops of Kroil so that it wicks into the threads and let it set for 24 hours and the try to unscrew the crank. Beyond that find a good service person. Avoid getting Kroil on your skin.
Good Luck On Sep 1, 2015, at 2:10 PM, Ugo Bo <ugobodi...@gmail.com<mailto:ugobodi...@gmail.com>> wrote: Yes is left handed, it goes in the same screw as the original handle. So as I said, "I tried to unscrew the cog turning clockwise". >From Rex o fader instruction: ""A. FITTING ON THE CAMERA 1. Unscrew the camera rewind handle by turning it clockwise. 2. Fit the Rexofader with its hole on the axis from which you just screwed the rewind handle. 3. Screw down and lock screw (1). 4. Set the special rewind handle (2), supplied with the accessory, in place. Screw it on firmly, turning anti-clockwise" If you turn the cog anti-clockwise you just wind up the motor 2015-09-01 22:50 GMT+02:00 George, Sherman <sgeo...@ucsd.edu<mailto:sgeo...@ucsd.edu>>: The crank is left hand threads Sent from my iPhone Sherman George 858-229-4368<tel:858-229-4368> On Sep 1, 2015, at 1:47 PM, George, Sherman <sgeo...@ucsd.edu<mailto:sgeo...@ucsd.edu>> wrote: As I remember the Rex o fader is left hand thread.

But the cog screw that's is stuck is a male one, which goes in the rewind spindle screw that's a female one, so heating the cog up should widen it making it stuck even more... And I can't heat up the spindle screw which is unaccessible without dismantling the camera... (and both of these things scare me a bit...) 2015-08-31 16:14 GMT+02:00 Scott Dorsey <klu...@panix.com<mailto:klu...@panix.com>>: Put a drop of kroil or some other penetrating oil on the cog. Maybe heat it up a little with a soldering iron. --scott _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com<mailto:FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com> https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com<mailto:FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com> https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com<mailto:FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com> https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com<mailto:FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com> https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com<mailto:FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com> https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks Sherman George sgeo...@ucsd.edu<mailto:sgeo...@ucsd.edu> 858-229-4368
