Cossor 1035 leaking?

[Rascal]

I have quite a bit of valve gear that isn't in everyday operation which I frequently 'warm up' (every couple of months) over a couple of hours on the variac.

After a 'warm up' session I decided to re-site a Cossor 1035 scope - and noticed a sticky oil stain underneath it. I am assuming this is capacitor or transformer oil leaking. How long its been leaking I have no idea. The scope worked fine during the 2 hours or so it was switched on.

I am not familiar with the inside of the scope, and I am in two minds as whether its worth lifting the bonnet on

Has anyone any experience with the 1035 ?

Regards

Can't comment on the leaking, but I have memories of using the 1035 at tech when doing my City & Guilds R&TV servicing.

You can download two documents on the 1035 FOC from the spiffing 'Valve Page' website. One covers the schematic - the other the servicing, setting up and calibration. Excellent documents:

Hope that helps.
