Does anyone have a Turbax DF unit laying around? Can you tell me if the socket head screw (1/4-28 I think) that holds the spinner on the front is a left handed thread?

I would like to use a starter probe with a 3/16" ball end hex on the end to start the motor, but if it spins that machine screw out of there it won't work. I'm pretty sure it's LH thread, I just dont want to take my fan unit out to test my theory.

Thanks.

Allen,

I believe that the threads are standard threads. We use a starter probe to start the Hawk with no problems. HAven't unscrewed anything yet. ;)
