HELP: Profil binding dias-assembly
Hi guys,
Need some help. I recently purchased a pair of Salomon Prfil automatic bindings from a warehouse clearance for my daughters skis. These bindings are mounted on store display stand and I'm currently disassembling it. Got three of teh four screws off. How does one get to the screw under the main part of the binding - just in front of the toe. Help much appreciated. Tony Ottawa |

Look at the binding from the side, find the pin holging the rubber
stopper and push the pin out with somthing sharp. Like, a fine flat screwdriver will do it. Then pull the stopper out and you will get access to that screw. I hope you are using a heavy-duty phillips: those srews ruin cheap screwdrivers. |

You should not have to remove the rubber bumper. On the top of the
binding in frnt of the foot is a plastic piece with the Solomon logo. Pry that up and it should snap off. That provides access to the screw. There should be a hole in the bumper to allow the screw driver to reach the head of the screw. Also the screw is not a phillips head srew--it is a Posi-Drive screw. Use a good #3 posi-drive screw driver on your binding screws. The posi-drive and phillips look similar but the shap of the crossed slot is slightly different. A phillips screw has tapered slots while a posi-drive screw has slots with parallel sides. Using a phillips screw driver on a posidrive screw might results in stripped screw heads.

NO NO NO NO DO NOT PUNCH OUT THE PIN. DOING SO COMPROMISES THE BINDING
AND COULD CAUSE UNEXPECTED FAILURE. The push button piece pops off. Its been a while since I used these bindings so I am a little vague on how to pop the button off. I think you slide itforward using a screw driver as a wedge. I do remember that getting it bacl on was a lot easier than taking it off.

Oops. Yeah Jeff, you are right, I was wrong about removing the rubber
bumper. |
