Do you lift LH1 off completely or roll LH1 down?

If you lift off and your cor hasn't got an adjustment to set the venting of the split top plate pad so it barely moves (but the pad still opens by a mere crack), then it's over venting.

If you roll down to release just the upper part of the split top plate, then the diamond aperture in the pad cup could either be furred up, filled in with excess shellac or it could also have been enlarged.

The opinions I express are my own.
