talyvel repair - has anyone ever replaced the pendulum wires?

Oct 05, 2015 2 Replies

I have a Talyvel 1 with a broken wire in the sensor unit



Has anyone experience in repairing the unit or is there a workshop manual available



Any advice would be appreciated



Regards


YIKES!!! I dropped mine off a lathe bed and it fell into the drip pan. Amazingly, no damage I could tell. They are tougher than I would have ever expected.

I have looked at the wires, they look thinner than hair. I think all 5 wires have to be the same length so the pendulum swings in only one axis. I have no idea how they adjust them so they are all taut at the same time. I have a Talyvel 3, I'm only guessing the sensor is built roughly the same way.

Hi Jon Thanks for replying Consider yourself very lucky as I may have a pricey repair if I don't get some leads from you guys with a bit more experience than myself Regards Ian
