Thanks for the link, both English and German manuals downloaded, English is 408 and Geman is 408-1A. Interestingly, they both appear to be the same as far the control panel is laid out so perhaps the 1A is just a later modification to the circuit?
It is a pig to work on, I have struggled to remove the board containing the timebase controls as neither of the vernier controls where functioning so it was impossible to set them in the "CAL" setting. Reason for the failure was the nylon flexible shaft couplers have split in half possibly as a result of being over tightened or rough handling? This it seems has been a common failure on this particular scope. All I know is that I find myself needing to replace all of them, 11 in total, anyone have any ideas where these could be sourced from at all?
I have also noticed that on the digital output board there is a capacitor that has either blown or been smashed (looks like its been chopped), schematic shows it as being a 100pf 100v (grey with a black cap on top), cant recall seeing a capacitor that looked this before. Nothing came out of the case when dismantling it and there is no sign of any magic smoke having been released either?
