...would someone please post a photo of their Tok 39 with the door open, so I can see what the computer is sitting on, and how it's mounted? I just bought a basket case and I'm trying to reassemble it...thanks!

...thanks, guys...I wrote Ryan Underthun today, and he told me about the different set-ups for mounting the computer on a Tokheim 39...after reading his reply, I went through the box of parts, and realized how everything went together...I'm going to try and put it all back together this weekend...

There is an assembly bolted to the frame on each side that the computer sits on. On one side, its the reset crank assembly and the other side contains the nozzle rest and lever.
Both of these assemblies bolt between the side frame rails with 4 bolts on each side. Hope this helps.
Here--I found a couple pictures of the nozzle rest side!!!

...thanks, Kevin - I guess mine has to be a later design, or some wartime thing; it's primarily stamped steel, even the nozzle fork...heck, the housing for the computer is some sort of cardboard!

I have seen both stamped steel and cast versions. I would say most tall pumps used the cast and most short pumps used the stamped.


FREEDOM oil items wanted.
