No I don't have a manual John, a copy would be very useful thanks, firstly to find out the correct fuse rating, I can't make out anything on the old one, fortunately there were a couple of spares taped inside the transformer ............... thanks Chester  :thumbup:



BC, those pictures are dam good, looks like Omen VVXII  :bugeye: .............. what part of the world was it ?

Glad you sorted it Dave.....that's brill..... :clap:


Always look at the fuse first, it's designed to be the weakest link.......and as such they can sometimes go for absolutely no reason at all. But if it keeps going then you need to look further..... :dremel:

Yup ................ but with the bloomin' enormous light on the top of the transformer being lit up you kinda think ........... all worky fine  :zap: .............. but ............ not the case ...........  :bang: ............... anyway, simple fix once I found the problem, that's the good thing  :thumbup:

Have to say, if it was a problem in the motor it would have been on it's travels, not much phases me generally, but that box of tricks is outside my comfort zone  :hammer:

Thanks for the help.

Dave,

I think you will find that the units are bombproof. It is only when they aren't shimmed up to the machines shaft correctly in the first place that they cause trouble. So if ever you have to remove it, make a good note of the shims and where they go.

BTW, I run two of mine off a 110 volt site transformer. Chester gave and fitted me two of the units FOC for my mill (300 squid+ each), but couldn't squeeze the trannies in the electrical box, not enough room. So less than 40 squid off ebay, got me an indestructable yellow lump that could just sit on the floor at the back of the machine. Maybe a thing to consider in the future if you have transformer problems.

John
