Convert RTS to DTS

[andy5405]

I read on a decorators forum that it's easy to convert between the two machines on the same body by changing over the bases. I haven't heard it on here. Has anyone done this?

No, it is not that easy. It was easy on the previous models DS400 and RS400, but they changed something on the newer models DTS and RTS.

It has been discussed a couple of times before here.

Don't click on the thumbnails, the pictures from this thread have disappeared in a crash the forum had a few years ago. Just read the text carefully.

Thanks for the info, it didn't take me long after reading that to figure out that it's possible but not worth it.
