My EsatLab live mock score just changed
When I checked at 13:10 I had a 4.8, 4.1 and a 4.3 but now I checked to go through the wrong answers and it says I have a 5.4, 4.4 and 5.2?

Removable bass machine?
Hello!
I am trying to fix some notes that sound without the buttons being pressed and we have taken off the bellows to see that some reeds are bent, but also that some of the felts are missing from the pads below!
We have found one of the missing pads, I'm sure the others are somewhere inside the mechanism.
I believe that the accordion has a removable bass machine, where you just unscrew four screws and then it all comes out in one go? My evidence is that the plate the buttons are in does not seem to be connected to the rest of the accordion, and I can only find 4 proper contact points with the back or bottom of the inside of the bass.
Am I right in thinking that if I just unscrew these 4 screws, I can remove the whole bass mechanism in one go easily and then access the valves to fix the felts?
I will try to include images of the bass mechanism and also of the bendy reeds. Any advice on the bendy reeds would also be welcome! The screws I believe are to remove the bass are highlighted in red circles. They're identical on the other side.
Thank you in advance 😁

▲ 6 r/Accordion
Hi all!
I ordered an accordion online and it came today, a Rubin 6
Unfortunately, it must have got knocked during shipping as notes are playing without any buttons pressed.
This includes the bass side.
No buttons get stuck down when I press them, except when I switch to free bass mode (the rubin 6 is a converter bass) in which case the bass buttons do stick down when I press them and only come back up when I switch back to stradella.
Any ideas on how I could attempt to fix it? I have fixed problems in a stradella system before for another accordion but that one wasn't a converter so I'm not sure what to expect when I open it up!
I'm hoping the treble side will be nice and easy to fix, but the bass side definitely seems like the more difficult task.
Should I even attempt to try fix it myself? Would that ruin any possibility of a refund if it's properly broken?
I do think I probably could fix it if I tried but it is still quite scary :D
