Has anyone a spare locking screw that keeps the lamphouse door firmly shut? One from an RT1 would do. Thanks.

Simon I have just sold my Elf m/c's so can't look at one to tell you the size.
I would myself have gone to my local Nut and Bolt merchant, allthough he is really trade he sells to all and does not worry if only one or two at a time.

I think this is a 3mm screw that is either 10 or 12mm long. I seem to recall a service bulletin that said to use the longer screw (or that may have been the safety "lock" for the access door to the back of the projector).

In any event, it's a common metric size and you should be able to find one at a local hardware store.
