The end of the little screw has separated from the underside of the
re-wind crank lever. The screw has broken off or has come unglued.
Either way there is no screw hole at the end of the crank lever into
which to insert the screw as the spindle to hold the knurled rewind
knob. I need to completely replace the re-wind crank lever along with
the attached screw and knob in place.
