Members revrat Posted March 10 Members Report Posted March 10 (edited) My new machine was tripping the clutch and I found that the lower shaft was bent, as well as the metal piece to the left of the gearbox broken. Juki calls that the “front metal piece”. I pulled the rocker piece that connects the upper and lower shafts and tried to bend the shaft back, but it snapped right off. I need the lower shaft and the metal piece. Anyone on here that can sell me those parts? And if you have suggestions on changing it without knocking everything out of time I’d appreciate that too. Right now I’m planning on loosening the locking screws on everything mounted to the shaft and tapping the new one in while pushing the old one out with the new one. Hopefully that will keep everything aligned. Edited March 10 by revrat Quote

Members revrat Posted March 18 Author Members Report Posted March 18 I never did reply to this, but I did end up ordering them from Bob. Thanks, I look forward to being able to test this machine out! Quote
