Evening all. This past weekend I collected a Kity LPHV dust extractor up that I bought on the wonderful eBay.
It needed a new capacitor so I was unable to test it before I left with it but at £31 I was willing to take a punt. It also is in very good condition visually and appears to have been well looked after.
The new capacitor arrived today (£6) and the extractor did indeed work just fine.
However there does seem to be a bit of an issue, when it is on it develops quite a large wobble/vibration and something is definitely out of balance.
I was just wondering if anyone had any advice as how to diagnose the potential imbalance and what I should do to attempt to fix it. I've don't anything yet apart look and feel the impeller blades inside the machine which all feel fine and the correct shape/not snapped etc.
Be glad of any advice anyone may have
