Bag Bellows on Ebony SVTe

Recommended Posts

This is a question for any Ebony owner who has a bag bellows. I

bought a used bag bellows from a reputable retailer and tried it for

the first time today on my SVTe. I had a good bit of difficulty

getting it to stay on the front standard. The normal bellows has a

metal "lip" all around the front and when installing the bellows it's

easy to slide the bottom lip into the slot on the bottom of the front

standard and then to move the top slider over the top lip. My bag

bellows doesn't have such a lip. Instead, the bellows material is

virtually flush with the metal front. That seems to be why it was so

difficult to fit it into the bottom slot and then to slide the top

slider over the top of the bellows.

 

My question to any Ebony owner who owns the bag bellows: is it normal

for the bag bellows to not have the same "lip" around the front that

the standard bellows has?

 

Probably I just need some practice, this is the first bag bellows

I've owned, but does anyone have any tips for installing the thing? I

followed the instructions but they're very brief and don't go into

any detail.
