[/quote]I hooked up my drill to the spindle shaft to turn the HS pulley shaft and polished up, fits fine now.ERLover wrote:Well I went to put the new pulleys on today, motor pulley slid right on, HS pulley shaft was cleaned up with 220 wet and no burrs or any thing feeling ruff, a 32nd" chamfer on the edge of it, a little 3n1 oil on the shaft, I could only get the pulley on about an 1/8" at most with hand pressure, hard to pull off, I had to wiggle it a bit, I put a sanding disc on the spindle and turned that by hand and some more 220 on a block on the pulley shaft, same thing. Emailed Skip about it, have not heard back. I dont want to Gorilla it on. It should fit like a glove, but not like it is now on OJs hand.
It will be interesting when you go to take it off!ChrisNeilan wrote:Quite often if a pulley won't go on a shaft and the shaft is clean, I put the pulley in a toaster oven at about 300 for a while. It will expand a tad and slip on. Don't forget the gloves! damhik! (JPG can translate that)
