It was dropped or something was dropped on it. That wouldn't have come out of Doll's doors
like that. What you don't do is try to pry it straight using the flywheel. You'll break
something that you might not be able to replace for a long time, if ever. It's going to have
to be taking apart, and being a twin, that's a lot of parts.
Take apart in an order and put back together in reverse order. Don't just through the parts
in a box and then expect yourself to sort as you go. First part that comes off, set it the
farthest from you with the screws or nuts that hold it on. Nest part, set it and it's fasteners
a little closer. Keep doing this so when it's time to reassemble, it's all laid out for you.
Remember when you put it back together, the closest part to you was the last part to come off.
So now it's the first part to go back on, and so on, and so on.
Hopefully the journals are not to washed out. When you're putting it back together you might
want to shim it.
Have fun and welcome to hobby.
