Hi Doug Thanks for that reply that’s exactly what I needed I have just got the quill assembly stripped out and there is slight damage to a tooth on the cog on that shaft you mention Do you think I will be able to maybe smooth out the damage a bit with a file? Cheers mark Here’s a few pics of...

Ok thanks for the link

“Myfordman” do you have a make and model of these inverters and website to buy from?
