Reply to "Looking at a used Z-4000, anything to be concerned with???"

Another thing I forgot; early Z4K's did not have handle tensioner springs whereas later units did. Not sure when they were made standard. Without the tensioners the handles can get floppy over time, and not stay where you set them. The tensioners are easy to add and MTH used to sell kits. Each kit had a hefty spring and a big adjustable setscrew to tighten up the spring. They insert from the bottom. I am not sure where or if you can still buy the tensioner kits. The kit is PN IE-0000048 and cost about 2 bucks several years  ago. MTH may still have them. Cheap fix for a pesky problem.
