Yoke-Yuk

[felix]

Yoke#070-002-683,Yuk. Has anyone else wondered if you have the yoke right side up or bottoms up? I have had the rear ears[i assume this is part of the molding process] get caught in the pin cups[rear]. Also has interfeared with the tie link assy. #070-002-612. Why don't they grind these off at the factory? Some use roll pins and some use set screws but what really p_ss_s me off is the set screw coming from underneath the table leg!!!!!

Re: Yoke-Yuk

Hoo boy, ya got one there!
As for being upside down or not, doesn't the "ear" for the springs (070 002 688/9) to hook on to on the top? If not, maybe it is reversible top-to-bottom....

With tie link assy. Yes! I have seen the tie link get bent because of sticking on flashing. I don't think they're grinding it off anymore, have seen new tables with the same problem.

Have not seen set screws anywhere here. Guess I'm lucky!

Re: Yoke-Yuk

Watchca got there, Felix, is a Vantage yoke. I put those in with those ugly ears down. The ones with the set screws...I put the pin in, line up the holes, and drill it completely out, and use roll pins. Don't want to strip a set screw there!
The other problem to watch for with V: they don't cut the bearing bores as deep as AMF. This sets the tie link too far out toward the 10-pin side, reducing side adjustment of the 3 & 9 cups. Instead of the regular thick spacer between the bearing and the arm lever, I use shims/machinery bushings, totalling about half the thickness.
