hey guys do you happen to know if there is a trip switch or a lock to get these things turning? Mines stuck and cant move it at all after soaking etc...any help is appreciated...if not I will keep soaking and see what happens...Thanks!!

Remove the Veeder-Root [computer] from pump, place in a tub, fill to cover w/ Tranny Fluid & re-concentrated Lemon Juice [less sticky/stinky than cola], agitate daily for a few days. Remove & pressure wash w/ garden hose then air hose dry, freely spray w/ WD-40, air hose off again.
On opposite side of re-set crank, make sure it ain't locked up. Try the Re-set handle, DO NOT FORCE. IF Re-set works, try rotating the bottom shaft under the drum.

Thanx Dick...I will try it...
