The pressure switch needs to be before the filters. If the filters plug up the switch will still see the pump pressure, or the pump will continue to run on, and not let you know something is not right.
I see you caught this Issue. well done !
What can I use for nema 23 motor with nema 1.8 degree step? Is there any advice?
@@printerautomations I don’t understand your question..
I guess this is not carbide then?
What were the symptoms that went along with error codes? Mine is having same codes, but brakes grind when Trac is on but will stop when off after going 25-30, then vehicle lunges when accelerating
@@sulzy426 it would not drive right, especially when turning slowly. Felt like it’s holding itself back. Also, on speeds above 40mph, it would start jerking and would not go over 45-50
I live in northern Michigan which means that area gets a salt spray bath all winter. This causes the seizure of the tiny U-joint. My fix is this: I purchase the cheap F150 lower shaft which fits the rack but nothing else. I cut the the little U- joint yoke with a die grinder being careful not to touch the U - joint caps, which are nothing more than sheet metal stampings, not a machined cap, so they cannot be driven out without damage. On the Flex shaft I use a dremel tool with a burr and remove the staked portions only the drive the old U-joint out, one way only as the staked portion must remain on one side to locate the new U- joint. Use waterproof marine grease, Press it together, re stake the one side and the job is done for $33 for the sacrificial F150 lower shaft as of 8/20/2024
@@johnweide8822 your fix is even cheaper than mine.
Hey John. Do you have a part number or any other info for the f150 lower joint? Wife’s 15 flex needs to be fixed asap Thanks
I had this problem & it turned out i was low on transmission fluid. Having too much trans fluid will also make this pop up once the transmission fluid gets too hot ...
@@tonykari5124 did it drive smooth though? Mine was not getting above 45mph without shaking.
Can you tell me details of your motor and its driver?
@@isAif47 thanks for watching. I bought this setup long time ago. Here is the original video about it: czcams.com/video/dDxyaoYXxY4/video.htmlsi=XkBJ7Qm_tIM039vM Cheers.
@@TinkeringNerd thanks
I have same problem now today i will start to do same
@@binomair9326 best of luck! Thanks for watching.
the hole is why people use schedule 40 or 80 pvc
incredible nice job
You are the kind of people the United States of America need to immigrate to our nation, not lawless illegals. Lawless illegals forcing themselves onto this nation proves they are not going to abide by the law.
Very funny humor to deal with the horror, lol. Just a friendly heads up. Never seal off copper pipe with cement. Cement is acidic and will eventually corrode right through metal piping especially soft copper pipe. Use Flex Seal, expanding foam, or silicone sealant to fill and seal the gaps and cracks around your copper pipes.
If I may ask what was the actual message on the paper after they scanned it?
@@rizzogangret7989 they don’t give you paper. The message on the screen was something like: stabilitrak system failure, rear right low possibility.
i changed my front wheel bearings and both front wheel speed sensors and my traction control and stability lights are on the dashboard still after garage put it on there scan tool said left side wheel speed sensor I unhooked the battery left it sit for 30 minutes no luck at all
@dancurrier6421 sorry to hear that. Modern cars are tricky…
Your a fellow Ukrainian! I'd love to get one of these off you.
Unfortunately, I can’t make anymore of them because I don’t have the drawing anymore, and I can’t sell them because of liabilities.
This deserves more views. It will always be a valid method; maybe the best method. Even with a dial indicator I didn't get the diamond patterns so I just started adjusting and watching the patterns.
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for details, such as bolts fighting u all thru the last turn, & the misfit, & magnetic film.
Thank you for watching!
You actually don't have to remove the steering wheel to remove the shaft. I changed my 2009 ford flex and it fit perfectly!
I only paid $140 Canadian from Amazon
Send the bed out to be ground by professionals, scrape the carriage and headstock to match it, and NEVER flake a lathe bed!
And your command of the English is better than a lot of people who grew up here in the United States!! Blessings to You and Your Family!!
Thank you very much
Great video! We are preparing to pull a pump from 190' (210' deep well). We have a pitless fitting to deal with and pull the remainder. Thank you for the instructions!
Thanks for watching! Glad it was helpful.
Check this under the load . How is it stability
I’m afraid the numbers will be too embarrassing to post :)
Great work
Thank you very much
Does anybody have a clue why it breaks in the center? Is common..
You can call this a planned obsolescence… or poor design.
thrust bearings with locking nuts have entered the chat...
You on city water or well , there’s a difference … supplied by the city ( which they charge you for and are responsible ) or well and you maintain ???
so why was the thermal switch tripping? Even the new one?
It probably went bad after so many years of vibrations. New one works just fine.
Сколько зубьев используются шкивы? Думаю через муфты или шкивы соединять моторы и винты
30 зубьев, 1:1 передача. Я покупал шкивы, которые на моторы и вытачивал сам те, что на винты.
Со шкивами можно место сэкономить, потому как мотор можно расположить так, чтобы он не «торчал» наружу.
What type of spindle you use?
The spindle shown in this clip is a 3.25hp router. I honestly, cannot recommend it. It’s been replaced with 7.5kw air cooled E32 spindle with vector drive VFD.
Do you sell the part you had machined?
To be honest, it never occurred to me and I suspect, for a good reason. Liability.
Genius. 👏
Thank you very much
What are you controlling it with? Do you have it hooked up with Linux CNC or Reprap CNC
I’m using a standalone controller ADT-CNC4640.
Great upgrade! Would you be able to add detail on the resistors and relays you used? I have the same machine and would like to duplicate this mod. Mine is now out of warranty now, so it's time to fix this. Edit: After re watching, i noticed you included the resistor specs. I missed that the first time.
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for the tip. I did the same thing, just bought the shims from a local shop. $1 for 10 pieces.
Thank you for watching!
I can use for lead screw?
These are lead screws support bearing blocks.
HI, I would like to know your point of view for quality service suport, can you update us ??
It took me couple of years before I actually started using this stuff and started having questions and challenges. By this time, the 4640 unit was discontinued and I received close to zero support on it. Other than that, everything seems to work, once you figure it out.
What’s the cut depth ?
I think it was 12x6 cut. Maybe deeper, I can’t remember now.
Please Tamil
You want the whole world to speak in Tamil because you did not learn english?
Awesome work! I wish you can fix mine. I live in Georgia
Georgia that’s be a trip!
Good job
Thanks for watching.
@@TinkeringNerd Thank you friend. I didn't go your route because I don't have a lathe, but your video helped me a lot. I replaced the bottom gimbal bearing today. A slightly strange decision to make the gimbal indistinguishable.
I’m glad the video was helpful. I agree, some engineering decisions are strange.
@@TinkeringNerd 🤣👍
Thank you so much for posting this! Going to give this a try myself this weekend. Wish me luck as this will be a first for me, lol
Thanks for watching. Best of luck and be safe. Cheers.
hear me out bro, my only desfine concern is the base length. Your bottom wheel assembly is like 5 inches. Quite short for the load you have extended out there 🙃 That's all, this is a good build though. ❤
Thank you. What do you mean by bottom wheel assembly?
Nice video, could you please share the link where you bought the angular contact bearings from? Thank you.
Thank you. I bought those bearings from eBay. Search 7001B Bearing 12x28x8, they should come up. Cheers.
You are a professional
Thank you very much!
Could you drill without pecking?
Thank you for your question. I chose this method because the spindle minimum rpm is too high for drilling. Cheers.
@@TinkeringNerd how hard would it be to lower the rpm?
@@23dt444 for a vector drive or a servo motor it wouldn’t be an issue. For a regular VFD it’s a challenge, especially for prolonged run times. On lower rpm, VFDs need to flatten the V/r curve by increasing voltage on low speeds. This, in turn, leads to higher current, more heat, VFD overload, etc. my spindle feels pretty comfortable on speeds from 1000rpm, which is bit too high for drilling.
May I ask what punch die is that? Selfmade or bought? Thanks. Btw good video, might have to do this aswell on my freshly made PrintNC. Went for the cheapest Ballscrew/Blocks Option as well :).
Thank you! The punch and die is from Harbor Freight. It’s cheap, but works for small projects. Cheers.
Awesome! Very impressive.
Thank you very much. Hope it helps someone out there.
Is it possible to make an indicator light flash using the relay? for example „On“ (0.5s), „Off“ (0.5s), On.., Off.., ....😅
I can’t remember now, if there was such a mode on this timer relay. There may be, but I’m not sure. Certainly, what you describe can be achieved using two of those.
If you just roll that stuff on a iron bar and connection through a spring put it in a box as required and put a screw on the top and bottom
That would be an interesting idea for a new video. The problem is metal chips getting curled in the roll, hard to clean up.
or you can use a machete
Or a band saw. Why not? :)
Супер, какая длина приводных винтов ШВП, диаметр и шаг?
В оригинале, все ШВП 1605. Улучшенный вариант имеет 2005, но пока только в мечтах, хотя винты уже пришли довольно давно.
@@TinkeringNerdСпасибо, а почему шаг 10 мм не применить, какие минусы?
@@viktorfn2031 применил то, что распространено и имелось в продаже. Не нашел 10мм шаговых винтов.
