Moving on from my add (Tom Senior 4 sale)

[Shox Dr]

I'd say, because it needs clocking in to the machine its been paired to, once thats done it can be scribed/punched in.

Thats exactly what I have been doing, only I didnt not put a punch on it,
I stuck a thing sheet of ally with a scrib on it.

I was just wondering why my two dont have one

Spent a few days taking apart and cleaning the tom senior major

Some photos so far.

Got a question if anyone can help.

The oil level sight glass. How is it held in place.

I am guessing the outer ring is a tight push fit.

But I need to remove it and am fearful of braking the glass

Last two photos do open up if you press on the link.

In the last photo it shows the oil level sight glass I am on about

They just knock out, some not easily as access from the rear can be difficult. Cheap enough to replace, if you break it.

Ill give that a good next time I am at my unit

As everything is apart, I was going to replace all the V belts (dont want the clip together type)

Are machine belts any more heavy duty than standard V belts
