Re: Drill Motor + Gearbox + Breaker Problems

just looking at your pictures i think i can tell why you are having your problems. with the direct output of your gearbox going all the way to the wheel your axle is acting like a huge lever and missaligning your gear box. while it may seem like your wheels might have a flex of only a milimeter it will affect your gearbox. what i might sugest is to separate that axle and conect it with a flex coupler to account for any mis-alignment that may occur. if you have a second set of the black plastic couplers that first gives you, you could cut your shaft attach the hex gear to either side and use the black coupler as your flex coupler...hope this helps feel free to PM me if you have any questions



btw have you made sure that the clutch is in the drill setting aswell...try this first
