... and more...

notice closely in the second and third picture how the brushes are held into place with fishing line, for the armature to go back into place;)

don't lose the line when you put back in the armature...

RE: ...and they're OFF
 

remember the lone worm drive ball bearing? Put a dab of grease in the recess at the end of the drive, to hold the bearing.

RE: ...and they're OFF
 

I just got jammed again, tryin' to load some more pics, same size. Message is they're too big.

Have I posted too much in this thread? c3? pay?

RE: ...and they're OFF
 

EDIT: Nevermind. I found your other thread.

RE: ...and they're OFF
 

so whats the verdict...did it fix the problem?

RE: ...and they're OFF
 

Hey scott... 'Course not.

Ya' gotta find the problem before ya' fix it. Unless you're employin' the Fully Automatic Assault Wallet approach [sm=shootshoot.gif][sm=violent053.gif]Hit the problem with $340 worth of new parts and HOPE to fix it???. Not my style.

I found one worn part. After all parts were cleaned, greased and oiled, and re-assembled, it did exactly what I expected it to do. The same thing.

And I'm gonna' go with a nylon gear - not bronze. Now that I see how easy it is, I'd still rather do it again in 3 years, than replace the entire motor for $140+, in 4 years.

But if ya' want, I'll let ya' know when I put the new gear in when it gets here...

RE: ...and they're OFF
 

so what exactly did you replace?...or did you just disassemble and clean it out and reassemble?...
was the gear itself stripped or just those bushings were disolved?....
thanks a ton for the help!
Jeff

RE: ...and they're OFF
 

All I did was exploratory, and clean. I haven't bought any parts yet.

That white nylon gear was slightly shredded. You can see it in one of the pics in the case, and on my finger.I say slightly, because I just got back from evenin' service, and I got NO CLICKIN'??? None, on several open / shut cycles.[&:][&:][&:]

When I did the re-assembly last night, I expected it to click, cause I didn't do anything, except check it out. And clean and lube.And it clicked.

Although the thing is workin' fine now (I'm clueless on why), I'm gonna' order some nylon gears tomorrow.


EDIT: And where's that shiver guy? Do you see those delrin bushings in any of my pics? I didn't see anything like the MAMotorworks catalogue picture of the bushings. I need ta know if I should order them too...

RE: ...and they're OFF
 

removal of motor from assembly:
loosen bolt 4, second pic
loosen bolt 2, first pic (ALSO GOOD PIC OF THIS BOLT ( in red circle) IN POST #4)
you can then remove bolt 1 (it will not come out, until bolt '2' is loosened)and bolt 3, first pic, and the bolt shown is first pic of post #3, with a yellow circle.
then remove the roll pin in blue circle post #4 - SEE POST 5, RED TEXT!!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
RE-ASSEMBLY
Bolt 3 must be in place before bolt 1 is tightened.
Bolt 1 must be tightened before bolt 2 is tightened.
Bolt 4 - second pic, must be in place before 2 is tightened.
