Pre-load slots .

If you have ever adjusted your front preload there is a good chance the screw-driver slots are messed up like mine or worse .
If you carefully file a chamfer on the slot it gets rid of the crap edge and matches nicely to the rest of the area .Polish by hand.

Try a 10 / 20c coin on the preload adjusters. It saves messing them up in the first place with a crap fitting screw driver

Just went down the shed and checked. 10c piece with pliers if you are a girly man and it hurts your fingers

The reason I found this is because my Davey transfer pump has a similar screw arrangement to top it up if it runs dry where a 20c piece fits perfectly
