Just dropped the spindle on my old vf-2 to change the drawbar. Your video was a huge help. Thanks for posting it!

Wera hex plus allen keys are a life saver on these old machines.

DO YOU HAVE A VIDEO ON REMOVING THE TRP?

[@kinzy_fabrications]

Im afraid i do not but it is a very easy procedure to remove it, there is only 3 switch connections and the airline connections along with 4 bolts, no alignment or parameter changes are required to remove and refit
Thanks

that's a hell of an amount of end float, I could see some centre punch alignment marks so it's been apart some time previously, is the bearing clamp nut loose? best of luck Marc, I hope it's not too an expensive a fix!

[@kinzy_fabrications]

Hi
Yeah someone’s had it apart as it’s all marked up with punch alignment marks,
Once I remove the pulley I will be able to tell more but something is either undone or a shrink fit collar has slipped! I’ve never seen inside these spindles so not sure of the arrangement but I will film it and show you all whatever happens
Thanks
Marc
