Barrick My Freind, Chopper Here Again!
I understand about having to scatter your wife's ashes. I had to do the same thing with my Brother (Age 51), August of 2006.
It's a very difficult thing to do, however we have to go on. Time, hopefully, heals all wounds.
Pitch on the Pro: The others gave your the clue, pop off the pitch control link and turn it clockwise (to shorten) or counter clockwise (to lengthen) . Mark one blade, so that you know which one you are adjusting and keep adjusting that blade up or down.
Attached is a picture I found on the web of the Bell Hiller. It's pretty clear, hope this helps ya.
Love ya Rick, God Bless

THANKS SO MUCH CHOPPER R. I really needed to hear all that. I am going through a very hard time here. Losing the buddy-feeling of this thread just added bad vibes. I am really really LOW. Just got up from the workbench the PRO is almost totally back on BUT for the first time one of the blades spins lower, This is nothing I had to do before....soo.....went to the MANUAL and it seems to be VERY CLEAR how to adjust pitch except that , although I know the parts involved, can't figure out how it goes to make them longer or shorter, or how to disconnect them, or which of the two corresponds to the lower blade..... sheeeesh to think I used to have a BRAIN !!!!
So sorry to be a DRIP..... it's just that I have come to the time to scatter my wife's ashes in the GULF and it's tearing me apart.
If you know how to help it will be great. All the other stuff seems to be going great. THANKS DAVE.........
her is a pic. of the PRO coming back together.
