Pelikan M75 Go! Disassembly

[benbot517]

Would anyone know how to take apart a Pelikan M75 Go!? I have one, and while it's a sweet pen it needs some maintenance.

I have never seen one disassembled and put back in working order again. I think that these were not made with (from a users point of view) disassembly as an option in mind... However I might be wrong, and someone who is more into tinkering things might have have done it.

Pulling out the nib and the feed is my maximum disassembly.

 

I think the section is glued to the barrel.

I've heard of this pen being disassembled but have not seen it done. I don't expect that they were designed to be disassembled by the user. It may be risky to do so. If your problem is a stiff piston, maybe consider one of the more lubricating inks rather than disassembly.

Is it just friction fit?

[TorPelikan]

Yes, it's friction fit.

Does anybody know if the section can be unscrewed from the barrel?

 

My pen has a leak and don't want to force it.

Here are some pics of an M75 I have that was broken when I got it:

So, if it is separated the barrel form the section, it is posible that could get better if reglued.

Good sir, you are amazing. Thank you so much!

Bumping this thread because the Go's piston is REALLY simple to remove.

 

I just got a NOS one and it was quite stiff. So I unscrewed the piston knob all the way and, suspecting something like an M120 mertz, kept twisting, and with a gentle pop, it backs right out. I threaded it back onto the piston rod and the whole thing pulled out easily. Reassembly consisted of pressing it straight back in, where it pops securely (make sure the tabs all line up)

Thank you! This is really great. It would be simply awesome with a picture or two... *hint*

Thanks! I just got mine today as well but its piston moved smooth and easy. It's nice to know it can be serviced if needed later.
