How to take the top off this????

Hi Folks,

How do you unscrew the top off this (the obvious doesn't seem to work).

Cheers

Fragman,

The top lid is a 'bajonet-style' fitting.
normal opening: just unscrew a little anti-clockwise and pull the cap off....

Seen your is (factory ?)marked inert, the top can be glued (corroded stuck) in place ?

Two theories, maybe as it's an inert model, the top doesn't come off, or it could be a left hand thread ?

Hi. Thanks for your comments. I'd not thought about it being glued or indeed a fake fuze. The photo on Lex's site looked like it was a push down and turn job. I might try and heat it with boiling water and try again. Cheers

Is the join under the red paper band?
