« on: October 05, 2009, 07:22:03 AM »Thanks Doug, that’s very good information.
Question: My slip rings are pretty round but not quite straight on the shaft so I get a side-to-side wobble. It’s not enough to cause the brushes to lose contact so I thought I would be OK. One set of brushes and its ring is wearing faster than I thought it would. I stepped up my cleaning of the area and I’ll see what happens. Any Suggestions? Also, if I’m not mistaken once the ring is worn out I’m pretty much screwed. They don’t look replaceable.
Thanks, Geno
I actually managed to import some spare slip rings so they are replaceable - next time I do some inspections Ill pull down theh ead and see how hard they are to changeover - Matt Richards former owner of OzListeroids will know
