Cant tighten mug press

[PeteO]

Evening All,

Trying to get to grips with my new ST-210 and am finding i can not tighten the pressure on the right hand press (left side is fine)

It would appear that the knob is supposed to tighten against the locking nut and then turn together to make the screw thread move in and out (at least thats how it behaves on the left), i dont think the design is unique to this press, so hoping someone may have an easy fix for this before i either a) pull it apart b) contact supplier monday morning

Yeah, I got another one in this week, and to strip it down to get to the other side of the screw for the smaller nut, to make it all the tightness we needed, which was a bit of a faff, after I'd had to replace the blanket on our original one too, I discovered it's easiest in terms of being able to get at the screws to take the blanket off to also undo the four hex bolts holding the handle/arm from the back of the press.
