Jet mini bearings help
After using the daylights out of my Jet mini for about six years
turning pens, large bowls, spoons, ornaments, etc., the headstock bearings have finally gone out. They don't jiggle, but when they have no load on them at all and the handwheel is turned you can feel how rough it is. I have searched the archives on this but come up dry on how to replace them, and what to replace them with. I would like to replace with Timken or equivalent from the bearings shop rather than a Chinese/Jet set. But I need some help on how to get them out (schematic? instructions?)and what to buy. I know if I can get them out I can take it down to the bearing shop and they can match them in a minute. Any help would be tremendously appreciated. Thanks to all. Robert |
