i have problem with 4 pinions of the up and down of the head of my woodmizer lt40
i had speak a lot of times with the local dealer and there are not answer
i m thingin put a no original pinion but i dont know the type of chain that woodmizer use for this model
its a lt40 sh from 1995 (near)
the correct word is sprocket
in the woodmizer manual this number is S 07976
are you having trouble locating the part? or are you wanting an alternative to the sprockets?
the local dealer of woodmizer in argentina have not this parts
so im looking for an alternative piece
in my city there are a lot of industries of agriculture machines
(john deere , massey ferguson, class) so i thing there be equivalent pieces
i only want to know the size of the chain
Gustavo, the part numbers for my LT40 are different from yours, so I can't help you directly. Try this ...
Find the up-down chain in your manual. See if it has a description that looks something like "chain, #50-2 ...". This will tell you the size of the sprockets.
#40 = 1/2" pitch.
#50 = 5/8" pitch.
#60 = 3/4" pitch.
and ...
#50-2 means 5/8" pitch with 2 strands.
If you have this information, all you have left to do is to count the teeth on the sprocket.
We buy them from 2 different companys but under the same part number. Here is the manufacturer number. DS40B10x3/4. Maybe someone down there can cross them over. Thanks
If all else fails, you could take the old one to the parts supply place and see if they can match it.
If you're talking 4 pinions/sprockets you must meen the offset idlers. They should be a common machinery supply item if you have a local supplier. The chain is a # 40 and you can count the teeth on the sprocket and measure the center hole to describe it to the machinery supplier possibly over the phone.
As previously described, if you can take the defective part to the supplier, maybe he can either match it or supply one that can be adapted.
If you need the drive sprocket mounted on the gearbox output shaft, it's a 2-chain, 11 tooth, one inch bore sprocket unless you have the integral shaft and sprocket assembly. If you have the assembly, you might still be able to machine off the defective sprocket and fit a one-inch bore replacement onto the shaft.
Good luck
Just looked at the manual and see that you are referring to the "drive" sprocket. My industrial supply catalog (Grainger) doesn't list a #40 chain 11 tooth sprocket as a standard with a one inch bore. No real problem. A machine shop can bore a standard socket out and re-broach the keyway. If you have the integral shaft and sprocket assembly and choose to replace locally, you'll have to machine off the old sprocket and mill a keyway for the replacement sprocket.
Hope this hasn't gotten too complicated.
Again, good luck.
thanks i ll buy this
now i had the chain number and i ll be easy
thanks again
in the wm manual said ยท#40 realy must said chain ASA #40
