Will do.

 

[Ro_ja]

Thank you

 

[jondear]

Sorry ours is a 60 R .
But probably the same .This was the replacement for the original.

 

[Ro_ja]

Thank you
Was the original anything like the one on mine ??

 

[jondear]

Here it is . Paint covering plate on end .A number on casting.

We've got 60 with the bigger motor as pictured above. One thing we were told was to replace the shim/ring that should the round the hub of the motor where it goes into the body of the machine. I can't see It on yours, perhaps it doesn't need it....... perhaps it's why it failed.

you can get parts for the motor internals... have one where that needs a new shaft, should get to it really becasue it'll probably break down over Christmas!

 

[Ro_ja]

I've considered repairs to the motor and have not ruled it out .. but down time is a problem and for that reason I'm leaning towards a new unit

 

[Ro_ja]

Has anybody a pump number from a 30r??

Is that a sticker that I’ve arrowed?

If it is then carefully peel it off and roll it so the paint flakes off.

 

[Ro_ja]

[jondear]

After we had a chat I ordered a motor from Halse and fitted it yesterday.

The shaft does seem to be pitted.

There also seems to be wear in the internal bronze bushes.

New one.

A bit disappointing as the machine has only done 6 years.

My advice to anyone with a similar machine would be to remove the motor once a year,clean the shaft where it goes into the motor and apply a load of grease to prevent corrosion.

Not too sure which model your machine is but did you replace the metal collar on the motor?
