I have on my display cabinet for 9 years now the beautiful Marklin 37565-1 SBB class Ce 6/8 II "Crocodile", which I bought new from my dealer. Since then, I have never seriously tried to “open” (raise) the pantographs, since (to be honest) I was afraid that I would damage them trying. Can you please tell me how to open (extract) them? Thank you in advance. Regards Paris
