Hi.
I have an old TR8 that gets regular use until last week.
The tr8 has a single speed (24000 rpm), 6mm collet.
It suddenly became more difficult to manually control and seems to be
unbalanced when running.

Can anyone shed any light on whats gone wrong with it?

Thanks.

Arthur


Certainly the speed control is not working. A question/guess, it is not
spinning way too fast? Bearings are shot?

Probably time for a new router.


Hi.
It did appear to be running faster.
