new evolver and problems

2007-06-08 by twinfx76

I got myself an evolver from ebay and i love it! its simply amazing! 

I have some minor issues, the knobs do not seem secure at all, they
just kinda fly off sometimes. should I just use a drop of glue to
secure these? also the powersupply lead seems wonky, sometimes when
the unit is moved the power goes out, is this a common issue? 
 Thanks everyone

if the lead seems wonky try pushing it in further, i know itsounds silly but i had this with one i recently sold on ebay - could get the power to stay normal for about a year before i noticed that i wasnt actually pushing the power lead in all the way..

For the knobs I had the same prob.
Just remove them and apply some tape to the shafts and replace .
They should not trouble you again.
do not glue them as it would be difficult to remove them if future
problems arise.
