Pelikan M75 Go! Disassembly

Recommended Posts

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?

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

 

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

The section is glued to the barrel.

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.

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.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
