Resolute Repair

[kwallruss]

Hello,

As winter is approching, it is time for me to tackel last winters damage to my VC Resolute. I do not know where to begin, so i ask you all for a little helping hand. The damper mechanism seems to be not functioning properly. It apears that there needs to be some sort of fastner that is no longer presant to hold the sides of the damper in place. With the sides held in place the damper works fine, but the left side will not stay in place. Please see photos and any help would be great.

thanks!

I dont remember my resolute having anything there for fastening, but try this address (broken link removed)

It looks like it might just be warped a bit.....does the damper operate from the handle? I'm sure you know that you have to push hard on the spring handle once it is closed...and it then goes into the locked position.
