Wells-Index 847 Milling Machine - Ownership Thread

Since I will not be replacing the pulley bearings for now... I placed an order for the grease that the pulley bearings use: Mobil Mobilux EP 2
Also the one used on a few other areas: Mobile Grease XHP 222

I did place the order from Wells-Index for the other parts:

(1) 880-067-004 Wavy Washer (056-004-476 old #)
(2) 100-002-975 R-8 Key
(1) 100-002-974 R-8 Ring
(1) 000-200-007 Lower Bearing Retainer R-8

On the VFD... I am not having good luck finding anything in stock... that last one I order I thought was in stock and got an email yesterday that it will take 5-6 weeks to arrive. The only one I found that is in stock, is this one.

And I can't find reviews on it...

Check with Precision Matthews, they had them in stock last time I checked.

I agree. PM usually has the Hitachi VFDs.
 
Wolf shows the E510 is in stock, would need to call on the L510. Assume it is a 3 Hp motor. I can put together some parameters for any of these depending on what you want to do.

Teco Westinghouse E510-203-H-U 3hp, 10.5A CT/VT,230VAC, Single and 3 Phase,

L510-203-H1-U TECO 3 HP 230V 1-Phase Input 10.5 Drive Amps Constant Torque

Yaskawa GA50UB012ABA 240 Volt Single Phase 12 Amp 3 HP Microdrive

The L510 is the one I ordered from Wolf thinking it was in stock... It was when I got the email a few days later confirming the order and shipping time-frame that I was made aware of the 5-weeks shipping delay.

My mistake was using the filters and not paying attention to the green circles they place on those that are actually in stock.

The first one I ordered from another vendor, the DURApulse GS21-23P0 that you recommended, continues to show up as not available and with no real availability date. So at least I have one on order with an actual delivery date.

Order is still in for the L510 from Wolf... I was just looking to see if I find something good sooner. I will just wait... I can use the time to finish the cleaning, going over the oiling system, install the power drawbar, etc.
 
These arrived... The guide pin for the R8 collects definitely had some wear... I ordered two of those pins and only one arrived. They are sending me the missing one next week.

Nothing is ever easy.... :)

I need to call Wells-Index today... they must have an adapter to make this work...

The bar they sent is longer... but also looking at the brake location and the Maxi Torque Rite, it will just not fit over that plate... it interferes with the brake setup and the cartridge bearing locknut with the pulley shaft will not let it sit flat either... hummm...

I would think you don't need the brake if you have the tool. It's doing the work for you. I could be wrong, but that's what I think.
 
Brake, brake.... oh man, I need a break...
