[HAM] M-102- vibrato rotor shaft spinning , butDavid Damroze Damroze at yahoo.comTue Jul 1 14:15:37 CDT 2008
The rotor shaft in the vibrato scanner is now spinning quite nicely by hand after letting it soak in oil for a couple of days. However, I've partially reassembled the scanner and when I spin the flywheel on the TG side of the scanner, the rotor spinneth not ( after much toil). Is there some peculiarity of the mechanism where it will work once the whole thing is back in the organ i.e. an electro-magnetic clutch of some sort? Does the clutch only operate at certain RPMs? Is it possible that the clutch is burned out from the organ being run while the scanner bearing was froze and, if so, what do I check next. Does it reside in the metal box like structure under the little pan with the oil sponge within ? David D.
