You may never, ever use violence, working on Vintage, violence is to be used on the FS, and only on Sundays😁

It does...you need to pull off the the pulley on top first. That will need some force (I'm pretty sure the one on yours doesn't have a grub screw).

Oh, that reminds me of the brass ring in the CD50 motor. But also the Uher 4200 I recently fixed, whose motor has two pulleys, one on each side!

A nightmare, that!

 

I have pulled 3-4 pulleys, using a small extractor, it seams like B&O used Lock Tite or similar cement to secure the pulley on the shaft, after loosening the first bit they come of without much force. I secured the pulleys with Lock Tite Blue again, none of the pulleys had grub screws.

I have had good results warming the pulley a little with a soldering iron.

FS?

Thanks everybody. I have to check if I can use something as an extractor, it might be safest.

FS = Fabric Selector 

If you are married to one, like Soren, Rich and I am*, then you will know all about it ... rooms full of bales of material 😁

On a positive note, it does mean that there are less grounds for complaint about B&O equipment !

 

* note, Leslie and his wife's pantyhose being used for BeoLab 6000 fabric is a special case of this serious condition 😁

Ah so. I do select all fabrics I need.... So no problems on that (or violence with).

And tough not bales of fabric, not even mine, I dont have any problems with selfs full of vintage or so... or other materials...

Maybe it is question of choose😎😉
