2836-2 pin stem (keyless issue) - How to remove and put the hands

[frcf]

This is not a new question, but I need some help on fixing it. First, the button "disappear" (yeah, I'm dumb and forget that is not an 7750) I've found some tutorials about keyless works, but all of them says that I need to set the hands to 12 and then remove. But the problem is that I cant set the hands to this position. How can I remove the hands safetly? And also, how can I put the hands without scracthing them?

 

Thank you!

I do not believe you need to set the hands at 12 in order to fix the keyless works. You will need to advance the time until the date ticks over when reinstalling the hands, but you can reinsert the stem once fixed to do that.

I would look for a cheap hand removing tool. If you are on a budget you can carefully use this as a pusher when reinstalling the hands. There are also fiberglass pushers available--like a little tube--that will protect the hands better.

Good advice above.  Its only when refitting the hands you need to worry about the midnight setting/hands.

 

The button you mention is on the underside of this part of the keyless..
