The way that I found easiest to remove the original coating was to put them in an oven on low heat and use the heat to soften the material before scraping it off with a sharp razor. Then hit with sandblaster before powdercoating.
I tried using a sandbalster first but it took ages to make any impact on the coating so tried the oven and it seemed to work.

Re: Separate yoke from column
Hello,
i want to come up with this thread. I have a similar problem. So I want the change the side of the control column so that the F/O Column can be used of the Capt side. Nick from APHS told my that after removing the 4 phillips screws of the top the head part can be turn 180 °.
Did anyone have experiences with that procedure? Are there some issue to have a special look on? Did somebody have pictures or docs according the inner structure of the column in addition to the informations form projet777?
Hopefully somebody can help me!
Thank you

Re: Separate yoke from column
Guys, I did it for myself. It is relativly easy. The different steps are:
1. Removing the 4 phillips screws at the top of the column.
2. Yanking out the inner shaft from the bottom side.
The disassmbled assy looks as follows:
Important note: Do not turn the head before completly removed. The inner thread inserts can be damaged by the inner wire channel.
See the next picture for the inner thread inserts within the head part.
For changing form F/O to CPT or vice versa the head part needs to be mounted in the column turnd by 180 °. Additionally the inner wire channel (shown in the next picture) needs to the mounted of the opposite side of the column.
