Maintenance & Repair Tips
Clamping element will not tighten shaft anymore
If your 'clamping' element will not tighten shaft anymore (e.g. due to a slightly reduced shaft diameter), you may:
- press together the outer clamping element in a bench vise
- OR use a filling under the 'ring'. Soda/beer can strip works fine for that. Wedged parts has slits, make sure those are not towards each other nor towards shaft d-slot.
- OR add a heat shrink tubing over the inner clamping element as shown in the photo (NOTE: this is a temporary solution and may not last forever as the heat shrink tubing may dissolve over time):
Motor bearing is stiff
Replace motor bearing (mower motor: type 608-ZZ, 22mm diameter, 7mm width, 8mm hole) by a new one.
