rovercoupe Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Sounds like its going to be good to go once fitted, i like the idea of being able to bring it down so hopefully you wont put too much heat into the blade on the final bit of the grind.

ditchman Posted February 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 in the next couple of hours it should be here...ive got a vee belt so i will rig it up to run and leave it for 5 mins to heat the grease up and run the new needle bearings in....thyen i will speak to a mate of mine ...give him the model number of the motor to see if i can alter the rotation by swapping a couple of wires over without taking the thing apart..............then i will start work on the frame in which it all sits in................
