Jobo Red cap?

Yes, leave it in place when in use. I presume the OP wants to fit an expert drum, so it needs to be moved to the bottom position.

Ah, thanks

Yes it is the case. I buy it from someone who only use Jobo 2500 series for medium format and I will use it for the Expert drums. Maybe the cap was always be on the same outlet so it look a bit stiff and I don't want to break it.

Thanks also for the black tape. I didn't see it when I bought it but when I look at when at home, it look like a bad repair!

The link I give in my first post http://www.jobo.com/jobo_service_ana...cpp-2_lift.htm explain very well the difference between the first and last Jobo models. It look like some pieces missing but Jobo use the same molding.

Hello Ginette;

Pulling and twisting removes the cap,... it will not break.

The black tape just loosens overtime. Constant water exposure causes it to release, you can use two side adhesive or a lite coat of rubber cement to restick it.

A small question: The red cap is at the upper position, I don't want to brake it in removing it! Do I need to pull it or turn it to remove?
Another question: a black tape is at the back of the lift, is it the original design or a repair?
