khaldrogo Posted March 30 Report Share Posted March 30 Hello, Newcomer into the Nothingham world and lead here due to my interest on sound and filmmaking. The Stabilizer Roller (60hz in my case) is stuck and not spinning freely. Is there a way to clean it? I see 3 small holes but wont risk trying to unthread bolts without knowing if the head is hexagonal, flat or even if there's a clip or similar. Any advice is welcomed, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Immoral Mr Teas Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 Bumping this as I expect there are folks who may be able to answer ... assume Nothingham was an unexpected prediction of NAGRA, so “khaldrogo”, if you are able to change the thread title to Nagra Stabiliser Roller you might get the answers you need good luck, Jez Oh, and if it is a Nagra let us know what model (III, IV-L, IV-S, 4.2 or other). And if you don’t already know there is a very popular long running thread on all things Nagra on the Images Of Interest pages. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Render Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 I wouldn’t put much effort into answering. This is an almost word-for-word copy of a post made about a year ago. I don’t understand the purpose, but it seems like weird spam. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Immoral Mr Teas Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 About a year ago Michael this would possibly have slightly increased my enthusiasm of TBL’s dark web or whatever it calls itself these days. But if we are unable to second guess the RUR faction and they are happy to play the long game tantalising us with Kudelski parts then it seems Asimov was right. And we are doomed. I am now making sure ALL my Nagra accessories are wrapped up in extra thick black leather and safely zipped and press studded away. Thank you!! Jez Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Render Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 It’s all Psychohistory, my friend. I am looking forward to the rise of Hari Seldon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dela Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 With the risk of replying to a spam posting: The 3 screws are grub screws, and the threading is in the stabilizer roll itself. They press against 2 sintered bearings inside the roller, so if you loosen the screws, you can pull the roller exterior off and clean/lubricate. when the roller is reinstalled, remember to check that there is ca. 0.5mm clearing over the top plate, so it can move freely when it is disengaged.
