I went to a bunch of garage sales today. At the last one I found an Eastman Chickadee II D2. It was marked $20.00, but they told me everything was 50% off what was marked so, I got it for $10.00!

It did not come with any paperwork and it needs to be cleaned. They did let me plug it in and make sure it worked. Can anybody tell me how to take it apart and clean and or oil it if it needs it.

Thanks in advance,
Carmen

Very nice find! How lucky for you :)

Instruction manual (the D2 instructions begin on page 8 of this pdf file) can be found at http://s3.amazonaws.com/RFSupply/Eastman+Small+Round+Knife.pdf

Has disassembly and lubing instructions complete with diagrams.

Thank you sew much for your response. I am going to clean and oil it as soon as I get through with this post.


Thank you again,
Carmen
