nokka info

hi ive just picked up a nokka 400 processor and intend overhauling it before putting it to work. Does anyone have experience with overhauling and if so apart from the electrickery what did you do and where did you get parts from etc?

 

cheers,

parts are obselete, unless you can pick up some spare from someone who has on a shelf, we re-wired ours, solenoids for electrics are usually vickers whick you can still get hold of, we took bits off ours and a friend re-machined new bearings etc for us, you can still get bearings for the swivel arm.

 

Rohans the man to speak to if you need any help, he will be on his mobile and with signal monday evening, - still working now!

 

hope this helps a bit

they are pretty straight forward once you can get your head round it

Can't help on where to get bits but do now they are/were available within the last few years as the guy who bought my old one did a full refurb on it.

 

I never got on with mine, but it was fairly tired. The weak spot tended to be the measuring system, hit and miss at the best of times and then died completley and I never did manage to get it working again.

 

Also, mine didn't have much in the way of feeding power, often had to help a bit with the crane if they were long or particularly hairy.

Thanks very much for the advice there. It doesnt look like there is a huge amount to the machine apart from the electrics. I will let you fellas know how i get on with it.

 

Thanks again,
