Hello,
I've got a rex 26-188. I acquired it as it was being thrown away due to the previous owner knocking it over and breaking a part of the casting. So, I've fixed the casting problem and now I'm putting the thread tension springs back on (I had to take them off and throw them in a tumbler to get the rust off of them..yeah it was left outside for a couple of weeks before i got it. ) I don't remember which order thew go in and was wondering if anyone could either send a pic of theirs or post.
here is how i suspect they go , but I'm not certain. from outside in - adjusting nut, conical thread tension spring, washer #1 (thread tension washer), washer #2. and on the smaller set above - e-clip, spring, washer, washer.
like this:
[ tension ] ((((( ))))))) } {
[ adjusting ] (((spring))) } {
[ nut ] ((((( ))))))) } {
can anyone confirm?
Also, if you have this machine, how do you liek it and whats the thickest material that you've run through it
Thanks,
Shane.
