I have the same grinder, I've had it for a couple of years now and have put almost 400 hours on it. How are you liking it? What mechanical or other issues have you had with it?
It’s been pretty good to me so far a couple O rings , (5min fix) and I had the bearings go out but I’m thinking that was from what we grind, palms seem to love getting all caught up in the lower bearings. Good teeth and let er eat! I’ve been really happy with it so far
@@michaelbouwer4285 How long did it take to replace the bearings? What did the parts cost? I'm guessing you changed the shaft as well? My bearing are still original but the upper sprocket that drives the cutter wheel belt wore out at around 300 hours. That was $450. Rayco also shipped the machine with defective swing cylinders. That cost me a grand. 🤑🤮
@@ngbbane9097 they went out really early I think it was around 70 hrs but when I got them apart they had so much palm fiber wrapped in it I figure that was the problem since then learned to grind palms way different ha and I think parts were 900 ish and I did the labor myself it took probably half a day. Definitely need a puller though to get a few things off but wasn’t to terrible a job
