help with greenmech cs100

[GarethM]

All bearings have play, jase can advise on that.

 

Personally I'd be looking elsewhere for something catching the blade.

What year is the CS100 ?

When does the chipper make a noise ?

All the time or just at full revs ?

[naturarbo]

@GarethMlooked all over, nothing touching blades

@Jase hutchonly when revs are slowing

Anyway tl bush is out, I cut a slot for pulling it out easier next time.

Now the 4 screws that house the bearing, very crap design, they are gonna be soldered to the wall.

Now I can't rotate the 2nd bearing from shaft, locking screws are out, hammer doesn't solve or fire or wd40.

Help again please.

That's not the best way to ask @Jase hutch for help 🙂

Haven't got a cs100 but on my JoBeau had to cut through the bearing. Angle grinder to thin then whack with cold chisel.

[GarethM]

Bearings within a housing like that need the whole assembly taking out as it's designed to leave very little space for things to wobble when running.

 

Usually easier to put them in a hydraulic press supported from behind and use the hydraulic ram to push the shaft out like a hub puller.

 

But to be honest, take it somewhere.

 

Plus that spacer is now fit for the bin, if as I suspect it's a locking bushing, it's now junk and needs replacing as it's integral to how it keeps things tight.

Where in the world are you ?

If it's too much of a struggle I'd suggest taking it to a local dealer or ag engineers and they'll have it in bits in half an hour.

Looks like a pretty rubbish machine 

Certainly would not bother spending this much effort on repairs .

I very much doubt Jase had anything to do with the design but he does work for the firm that made it, if it is a Greenmech.
