Handle Hard To Pull

If the handle is hard to pull and skips, the teeth on the main gear M200MGX (Ref GE79X)

 or the pinion gear on the upper feed wheel shaft are broken or  worn.

Replacing Main Gear & Pinion Gear

Tools Required: 3/32" long handle Allen Wrench, screw drivers, hammer, punch

1. Start by removing the water bottle & tank

2.   Remove the key drum & stop bar

3.   Inspect Main Gear & Pinion Gear to see if either or both require replacing

4    Remove feed handle. You'll need to drive out the groov pin with a hammer & punch

5.   Remove Main Gear Assy (large gear & knurled disk)

6.   If the Pinion Gear requires replacing - start by loosening the 2 set screws 

      on the Upper Feed Wheel 500MUFX (Ref PW77X)

7.   Pop off the retaining clip on the Upper Feed Wheel shaft. Clip located on

      Upper Feed Wheel Shaft just inside left frame.

8.   Slide off the Upper Feed Wheel. If the Upper Feed Wheel does not slide,

      try gently taping the Upper Feed Wheel Shaft on the right side. If you hit 

      the shaft with any real force, you'll flatten the end and will not be able to 

      get the feed wheel off. 

      You can also try removing a stuck feed wheel by gripping the left side of

      the upper feed wheel shaft with a pair of pliers and turning the feed wheel 

      by hand until it is free

9.   Remove the Upper Feed Wheel Shaft, being careful not top loose the spacer 

      washers on the shaft. They are located on the shaft on both the inside and

      outside of the left frame. 

10. Slide the new Main Gear Assy on.

11. Slide the new Upper Feed Wheel Shaft & Pinion Gear in, making sure

      you put the Upper Feed Wheel on.

12.  Reinstall the feed handle. CAREFUL: Make sure the pawls on the 

       handle are pressed up against the knurled disk.

13.  Drive the groov pin back through handle
