repacking yugo belt loader...HELP

[blckwlfny]

Ok...I give up! I just got a post war yugo belt loader and despite remembering the positions of all the components and taking a picture before unpacking it, I cant squeeze everything back in the ammo can. if I move the gearbox (main piece) forward enough to clear a lip on the hopper, it obstructs a lip on the vice and vice versa Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks

Make sure you have a 8MM can not 7.62x51. 7.62x51 loader comes in 8MM can. There are other threads on this site with description and good pic of positions of pieces!! bjrmg

A couple of pics of mine which may help. Easier to see than explain...

Got it
Thanx for the help! I also figured out that it fits with NO squezing if you pack it like the above but also open the belt retaining clip/door and store it that way so it doesnt contact the handle recessed part of the ammo box
