How are people turning the trim pots on the g540? Everyone says use a non conductive screwdriver, yet the only one I found (ceramic driver) on amazon doesnt reach deep enough? I have tried toothpicks, whittling down chopsticks, etc and cant seem to get it? Can/should I disassemble the 540? Any advice / links to drivers that actually work would be much appreciated. B |

| Who is everyone? You're the first o0ne Ive heard it from. I used a HF jewelers screwdriver. It has a steel tip. No problems at all and as I'm deaf I had a girl do it for me while I jogged the motors. As long as you direct the screwdriver perpendicularly through the hole, it goes right into the trim pot. |

| Yes, you can use a normal screwdriver if you are careful to not touch anything else. You can also put some heat shrink tubing on all but the tip. CR.
