I am rebuilding my apron after some siluable oil ingress and a lot of rust subsequently (before I bought it).
I really need a manual if someone can help.
The apron is difficult to disassemble. Weiler were obviously very proud of the tolerances they could hold and subsequently set about designing the apron with an absurd abundance of interference fit bushings for every shaft, which hold all the gears (also interference fit). Add some corrosion and you have a nightmare getting anything to move.
This lowest gear + shaft is the worst bit, with a fitted bushing retaining each side. In my case the wear from the oil seals is horrific. The key inside the bore is also half work out.
If anyone has any spares please help.
