Kress Spindle speed fluctuatling randomly?

[Millatime16]

I would suggest checking the brushes first, also take a look at the commutator to check for wear.

Thank you.

I bought new brushes and installed them (the old ones were only a 3rd of length left).

Sounds different and wavers a bit on start up.

Do they need a bedding in period?


I guess if it still plays up, its time for a new spindle. Seems the replacement is an AMB 800 FME-Q only available fir Germany.

They seem to have a hard wired lead though. Mine has a connected that goes back to the CNC brain (for stop start). It doesn;t control blade rotation speed though.

They can do in order to make full contact with the commutator: the shape of the end of the brush doesn't always match it exactly particularly if old.
