That is the way to do that. Trying to remove shaft bearings and rebuild would’ve been difficult. Great job. First time I heard someone call a pulley a sheave, I had no idea what they were talking about.
Na definitely not just you. I have an account with several 3 ph aaon units . That slide like this. I started putting some white silicone spray lubricant on the blower deck to move them in and out.
As we get older sliding those units out specially, with heavy motors is difficult on our wrist, elbows ,back. I find spray graphite on every sliding component with liquid graphite. It dries to a powder extremely slippery.. It makes working with heavy, sliding items much much easier on our bodies . And it does not attract dust like grease because it is dry .
myself and my wife were laughing at all the finger tight and shaft jokes. bahahaha. she looks like a great helper. been trying to teach my wife and it has been going well so far. good video. and the wind slayer is *chefs kiss* good video Ryan
@HughesManHVAC nothing wrong with that. I bought mine to try and check CFM's. In the Trane manual it says to check static pressure and blower wheel RPM's and that'll get you close to actual CFM....plus I'm a tool junkie hahaha.
I am a relatively new viewer so maybe you have previously introduced your helper. Still would think it is a good idea to introduce anyone working with you on a job. Also, the Wind Slayer worked great. Everyone that makes videos outdoors needs to use one! Always enjoy your videos!
Your amp draw readings aren't valid. You got the current off of motor nameplate (correctly) but the VFD adds some current to the total, AND the VFD output (which would be the true current draw of the motor) cannot be read accurately at the drive output leads by most meters since it is not a pure sinewave. You would have to use the VFD display (if it has one) to see what the actual motor current is.
@@HughesManHVAC You're welcome, and I enjoy your videos. I found out about the VFD thing from my work in cinema (many studio screening room projectors have VFD drives on them,) and I had a motor issue one time where I tried to read current after the VFD and got some very odd readings, while my backup meter refused to show any reading at all. A quick call to the VFD mfgr. set me in the right direction, and they told me the "formula" to get an approximate reading from the VFD input at a given speed/frequency setting.
Good class amigo 👍🏽
Thanks!
Great Video as always. Thank you for sharing

Spray graphite. Noted. Thanks!
Nice job Ryan and Jena , if I spelled her name right , did a good job as well ... Congrats to her for coming in the trade ... Thx
Thanks for watching and commenting Eddy!
Good job Ryan has always.
Thanks!

Thanks 👍😂
Good stuff Ryan! That blower is a beast.
Thanks man!
Great job! Great video, nice tunes 👍
I appreciate it! Thanks!
Nice work Ryan.
Glad you enjoyed it
Nicely done Ryan. I have a tach as well, dont use it often...but its a handy tool for when the situation arises.
I bought it just to have one 😂

Good point! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow, were those backwards blower assemblies you mentioned received from York like that?
I got a pre assembled blower from Trane once that the wheel was in the wrong way.
Hello can you make a video of steps on how to check a package unit for beginners, thanks
Need some of that farm strength Ryan😂

Right on, thanks for the info. I appreciate it.
