Hobart A200 transmission, marble sounds, resistance with shaft support installed
It sounds like there may be a few potential issues that could be causing the resistance you are experiencing:
- Incorrect installation of the slow speed gear or key - If the slow speed gear or key were installed incorrectly, this could cause increased resistance in certain gears. Double-check the installation of these components to ensure they are properly oriented and positioned.
- Stuck gears - If the gears and key are stuck on the drive shaft, this could cause increased resistance. Try removing the gears and key again, and make sure they are clean and free of any debris before re-installing them.
- Improper alignment of the gears - If the gears are not properly aligned, this could cause increased resistance. Check to make sure the gears are properly seated and aligned with each other.
- Damage to the worm wheel - The freshly chewed up center of the worm wheel could be causing increased resistance. Consider replacing the worm wheel if it appears to be damaged.
Overall, it may be helpful to consult the Hobart service manual for your specific model to ensure all components are installed correctly and to troubleshoot any additional issues that may be causing the resistance.
Hobart A-200 first gear not working
Try having the planetary nut(s) less tight. From what I've read this model is very sensitive to the main shaft being tightened too much. I'm in the process of rebuilding mine and I screwed this up. Sounds like you did better if it's largely working. Let us know what you find.
Hobart HL 600 Trips GFI breakers
The sure fire tester for this problem is called a MEGGER and it measures the resistance between the insulations on everything. You could try that to see what it says. Some motors dont work well with GFI because they are capacitive start and that trips the GFI.
