Hi everyone!
I own a current production Elektra Micro Casa a Leva.
Do you recommend adding an additional spring ?
Where I can buy one?
Thanks in advance
By accident, the stopper on my pressure gauge popped out for my manual lever, Rossa, and the mineral oil drained out of it. I bought mineral oil and refilled it, but how do you know if you've put in the right amount? I still see a small air bubble in it and am wondering if I...
I got the quote today. While searching in the forums, there are a lot of complaints about temperature stability on lever machines in general. Is there testing done to demonstrate Vesuvius'a ability to do consecutive shots and long shots? How does it...
