Centre Rod

Post by Big Chris »

Hi all,

Have a machine in which the centre rods seems to unscrew. I didn't realise this was the case, until I got a call to say my machine as totally empty and in pieces. I'm sure it's because of the centre rid unscrewing itself.

Is there an easy fix for this?

Cheers
Chris

Weld the bottom nut to centre rod or put two smaller nuts on one acting as a lock nut.
