Got it apart this morning and ordered new bearings, races and
seals, be here tomorrow. I had to make a puller and weld it on
the sleeve to get it off. Cut the puller off with the 4? grinder
and smoothed it up so the bearing will slide on okay. There is
no set screw on the sleeve for the key. The main shaft
through the generator turns easy and smooth, so I don?t think
there is any problem there. The 4 broken 5/16 bolts came out
easy with a left hand drill bit. The only thing I can see is that
the 4 bolts broke and let the gearbox drop down. I?ll see if I
can remember how everything goes and put it back together.
Will it hurt anything to hook it to the tractor and spin it without
the electric hooked up to anything? Thanks, Chris
