The greatest danger of those spinning powertools is a bit of fabric on your body getting wound into the spinning bit, which quickly and violently pulls you in and does great damage. No gloves or sleeves or loose clothing near spinning powertools.

Good morning. I need assistance please. I have a Dual Drive Suffolk Power Punch 17". I need to replace the clutch plates. On a manual I have found, the part number is L.5319, but my number is L.5318. I do not not know what to do now.

I couldn't tell you the answer I'm afraid. 5318 and 5319 sound like they might be similar though? Can you still get both? Maybe 5319 is an updated replacement for 5318. If you can still get both, maybe buy both and return one when you can see them in the flesh?

Very helpful video! I'm looking to clean up some Chasseur Escoffier copper pots that I've had for years. Can you help me to choose the right compound and buffer? The short story is that I accidentally burnt one of the pots by putting on some water to boil a few eggs, then lay down on the sofa and fell asleep (of course!!)... Woke up the next day to find the pot still on the stove and completely black!! Thankfully the pot seems structurally OK-no warping! I've got a fair way in restoring it using Bar Keeper's Friend, a lot of elbow grease, and time. But there are still a lot of black fleck marks on it still and the copper has dulled a lot. I'm looking to purchase a bench polishing wheel to fix this one up.... and, of course, keep it to touch up the pots to a beautiful shine every year or two. If you have any suggestions on what combination of wheel and compound would most suit the job, I'd appreciate it if you could let me know!
@TooManyProjects
@TooManyProjects 6 ай бұрын
I couldn't tell you I'm afraid. The copper pots I have are plated, so I'd be very careful not to go through it. Call metalpolishing.co.uk, they are very knowledgeable and sold me the kit in the video. I note they have also gone and embedded it in their website which is nice. Would have preferred a little thank you comment though.

@@TooManyProjects 1981, my cd185 pulled from 20 in top & zipped str8 up to 65mph, much to the unhappiness of Superdream owners who thought they were the bees' knees on their £800 bikes when cd185s cost just over £500. The later 233cc five gear version of that engine had the same pots but taller rods so they weren't as sweet and smooth and revvy. They also had brilliant 5 inch drums, as good as disc but maintenance- free other than replacing the cable every couple of years. The 185 was kick only, the cd200 kick and electric til A reg 83 when they went 12v and cdi and deleted the kick. All versions had enclosed chain and suspension units. Tyres fatter than 300-17 raise the gearing a bit which is good but they're a swine to fit by hand. Yes, I was an enclopedia on these bikes back in't day. The ethos was passed onto to cb450dx which was much softer tuned than the 400 superdream. I had two of those too. The 250 nighthawk is complete poo, really slow. They sold like cold cakes cuz the gn250 had more chrome and was much cheaper. Sorry to bore you. Feel free to throw a sack over me, you wouldn't be the 1st.

the thing in the bottom of the carb that you dont know its an accelerator pump. when you open throttle, a part that act on the butterfly will also push a lever that push a membrane under a spring that will push extra fuel into the carb to enrish when you are accelerating... its just a clever trick to enrich when accelerating. :)

We have a CD200 and 750 nighthawk interestingly 😅 My cd200 has been with us about 2 years and is an ongoing project - your videos have encouarged me to pick it back up from time to time when ive lost motivation - i think i watched the carb video 10 times before giving in and getting a cheap Chinese new one which worked straight away 😂.

One of the centrifugal clutch assemblies was sticking in the engaged mode, almost seized. Must say it took a bit of freeing off but I got there. Now it's better than ever. Wouldn't have known how to diagnose this without your video. Thank you.
