Treadle Resistance/Stiffness

[GEC]

So I have the Dunlop GCB80 volume pedal --

-- that works in a Crybaby housing and uses a pot like a Crybaby. But it moves way more easily than my Crybaby, to the point where I can't set it somewhere and lift my foot up without knocking it out of place, and I can't pull it all the way back and leave it cutting off the whole signal, because when I do, it's so loose that it falls forward a little bit. So my question is, does anyone know how to make the treadle action a little stiffer on a Crybaby housing like this?

Re: Treadle Resistance/Stiffness

Take the bottom off the pedal and look inside, you'll see two nuts down the center line of the pedal, they attach to a metal strap which goes over the pivot bar that connects the top rocker to the bottom part of the enclosure and also controls the tension of the pedal. Tighten them up a little bit and test it to find the tension you like.

I googled for a pic of the inside and this blurry one is the best I could find. You can see the two nuts, one right below the circuit board in the center and one aligned with that first one farther down in the pedal.
