Eclipse round magnetic chuck - how to dismantle
Hello,
Few weeks ago I purchased Eclipse round magnetic chuck. Diameter is 230mm. I think that there is something wrong with force on/off control. When I turn with controller there is not any significant resistance in compare with other magnetic chuck that I own, and no any changes in magnetic force. For this reason I need to open chuck and look inside. I have idea that there is broken connection between controlling lever and short-circuit plate.
Problem is that I don't know how to do dismantle. I removed flange with Morse 5 arbor and removed bolts that that goes from back plate to front segmented magnetic plate (these was 8 bolts on most outside circle - see attached photo of chuck back) through chuck body. Threads of these bolts are in front segmented magnetic plate.
Four holes with threads in next nearest circle are bolts holding flange. Purpose of most inner 4 holes with threads same as holes for flange is unknown. These 4 holes and holes for holding flange are blind.
When I knock by nylon hammer on sides there is very small move of central circular chuck body.
Does anybody have idea how to dismantle it, please?
Thanks
