Re: Motor Speed
There was two different speed gearboxes made on 70's. If the one you have on the table is faster, transfer it to the sweep and the machine should work fine. Hope this helps.....

Re: Motor Speed
I have one of those too. Steve is right. It will work better on the sweep but mine is still on the table. It took some creative adjusting to keep it from interlocking. Basically, you have to make SC think it's at 270 before it actually is.
Recently it started to interlock a couple of times a week. It turned out that the sweep gearbox was low on oil causing it to run just a little slower than normal. Since I refilled it, I haven't had an interlock in about a month.

Re: Motor Speed
HEY I HAVE 36 LANES AND 36 OF THE FAST GEARBOXES.WE BOUGHT THESE OLD STEPPER 70'S LAST YEAR FROM SOME PLACE IN JERSEY. IF YOU PUT THEM IN THE SWEEP IT IS HARD TO CLEAR WOOD IF IT PILES IN THE GUTTER. THE SWEEP GOES SO FAST THAT IT RAMPS OVER THE PINS NOT MATTER HOW LOW YOU ADJUST THE SWEEP. PLUS YOU HAVE TO RETARD THE SWEEP RUN SO IT DOES NOT HIT THE 1 PIN . YOU CAN ALSO TRIM THE TB CAM A PINCH TO START SWEEP UP A LITTLE LATER.IF YOU PUT IT IN THE TABLE YOU HAVE TO TWEAK YOUR INTERLOCK. AND ON SOME MACHINES IT IS IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT GRINDING THE INTERLOCK CAM.PLUS IF YOU TALBE ADJUSTMENTS ARE NOT PERFECT PINS WILL FALL.I AM IN THE PROCESS OF MATCHING FAST WITH FAST AND WEIGHTING THE SWEEPS ON EACH SIDE WITH 2LBS TO HELP KEEP THE SWEEP DOWN. AND I CANT ASK THE OWNER TO BUY THE GEARS TO CONVERT 36 MOTORS. I THINK YOU SHOULD BUY THE GEARS AND CONVERT IT TO A SLOW ONE. HOPE THIS HELPS YOU. GLEN. OH AND I HOPE THE CAPS DONT OFFEND ANYONE

Re: Motor Speed
Does anyone know if the motor is 50 or 60 cyles?The owner of a small house called to ask me about two motors that he bought that "seemed" to run very fast. The motor plates had been changed and sold "AS IS ".
I installed a 16 lane center years ago when used machines were cheap. The were Jap machines with 50 cycle National motors. I had the owner pick up 16 motor heads and we put them in the table position. As time and money allowed, he replaced all the motors."Gun control is the policy of tyrants"

I have 50 cycle motors currently running on the tables now... the machines we got when we bought out another center had them installed. They run good, and as long as they continue to do so, I'm going to leave them in place... As they burn out or die (usually about 1000 years or so for National motors), I'll get new 60 cycle ones.<span style="font-style: italic">Educatio est omnium efficacissima forma rebellionis</span>

Re: Motor Speed
GMAN, You live with 50 cycle motors!! Bless you !! I serviced that 50 cycle center for a long time. Every Sat. I'de have to spend most of the day re-adjusting tables. Once he started replacing the table motors, everything was fine. I just started useing the new modular start relays from AMF. There are still some motors running with the points and cent. mech. on some of my machines."Gun control is the policy of tyrants"

4:1 Timing off..
*sigh* Hello friends..
I had a 4:1 go bad and I've never seen or done one before. Trying to search the depths of the forums, YouTube videos, it didn't seem too bad....

Adapting the Bluffton end cap & terminal board kit to Franklin BE (and FE) motors.

Turret clutch rebuild
At what thickness do you replace the clutch face.
Is there a minimum dimension from the clutch face to the rivet.
Thanks...

Solderless relay conversion
Is anyone running the solderless relays on the accelerators? How do you like them? What brand? How difficult to convert was it? Would love the feed back as I'm about to switch...
