Re: GW603 machine size setting

Size should be set for you by the switches when the module is fitted into the housing.

Re: GW603 machine size setting

thanks Penguin45 wasent sure on how it was done. another question how much noise should the bearings make? i took the rotor off so i could listen to them when i spin the bowl fast (by hand) i can hear a continuous wish noise with the occasional clunk noise from the bearings witch tells me that they will need to be replaced? (no sign of seal leaking) the 5kg machine i took the module from needs bearings as well. 🙁 they will cost $53.60NZD. yet to price bearing and seal kit for the 6KG.

Hi

If you live in Auckland you can get 2x 6005 bearings + seal from a company Bearing Wholesale Ltd 95 Morrin Rd for about $15 (cash sale). The seal needs to be replaced once removed.

Try removing the shaft to check the bearings independently. If the bottom bearing is the only one gone it’s an easy job no seal to replace. Also check that the shaft is clean at the point where it makes contact with the seal, as grit can work its way into this area causing seal failure.

If you don’t live in Auckland try your local bearing supplier, as there’s a good chance they may sock the bearings and maybe the seal.
