I have then entire assembly out on the bench, but I can't get the cylinder to pop out. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 156 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 156 | You will need the key to get it out.
Insert the key, take a pin or straightened paper clip and insert it in the small round hole on the front.
Turn the key and pull out the cylinder with the key. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 20 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 20 | What if I don't have the key? Any other ideas short of total destruction?. BTW, it's a 1950 3100. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 6,377 Ex Hall Monitor | | Ex Hall Monitor Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 6,377 | A locksmith can probably help. Also a lot of those old cylinders were worn enough that any key that would go in would turn it. If I remember right it's a Briggs & Stratten key.
