    Oak gate finish

    Thanks for the reply. I've never heard of not using BLO on oak before. I use it all the time. I read the instructions on a bottle of Axminster BLO and it says not for exterior oak but doesn't say why. Maybe I'll gor for tung oil then.

    Oak gate finish

    Hello. I'm making a sliding gate out of a steel frame and seasoned horizontal oak planks. One side is directly south facing. Any recommendations for a resistant finish? I'm thinking a few coats of boiled linseed oil as it will not peel and can just be recoated. Its also cheap and quick :)...

    Universal machine motor issues.

    I'm taking your advice! :) I didn't use the NVR buttons, so that just leaves the switch.

    Universal machine motor issues.

    The two buttons were red and green. They work in so far as they turn the machine off and on. I assumed it was also an NVR switch but I just tried it with the motor running. Red cut the power and green started it again, the motor stated up again on its own. I don't think I ever tested it as an...

    Universal machine motor issues.

I don't know much about motors and had assumed the AVV position was a safety thing until a friend told me about start up currents this weekend. I had been using it last week with no problems. There are two...

    Universal machine motor issues.

    Its from the 80s. I've had it about a year and never had any problems. I'll try and get hold of the diagrams. Does it sound like the switch is the problem? Its made by Bremas and yes it appears pretty specialised, I can't see anything else like it. Am I damaging the motor or capacitor running...

    Universal machine motor issues.

    Hi Diagrams seem to be for different models, H210 or H300. Mine is H260 and the diagrams only appear to have one motor, mine has three. And I can't get the scanner working since I changed to Linux. I've had a good search online but can't find anything. I've taken the switch off and taken it...

    Universal machine motor issues.

    Its single phase. My friend has three phase machines so I know a little bit about how star deltas start up and its not like that. It feels more like a car ignition, you turn the switch far clockwise to start then it springs back. There is a wiring diagram. I don't understand it. I had been...
