wegoma feeder question

[David Zaret]

i have wegoma feeder, and need to split the split wheels and install them only on the outside of the shaft (removing the inner wheels). is there some sort of spacer to do this? how do i hold that outer wheel away from the back of the shaft? thanks.

Doesn’t Martin USA distribute those? Have you tried reaching out to them?

yep, called them today, they said they didn't know. "first time that question has been asked." they are going to check with the manufacturer.

Dave,
you should be able to just reverse the inner wheel to make it single to the outside. This is a newer model with the wing nuts but works the same on the older style with conventional nuts. And also works the same on the Comatic feeders.

joe - thanks for this. the two wheels interlock at the hub - are you saying to ignore the interlocking? i'm trying to picture exactly what you're describing.. thanks.

Yes, just turn it around. The interlocking part holds it to the outside. Then the smooth face of the wheel is facing out to allow tighten with the nut

great - thanks joe.
