|  HD worms binding need help
i just installed hd worms front and back. The back worms seem to be fine smooth operation all the way through the spool cycle but the front seem to be binding at one point but some if u reverse it it seems to free itself up then a couple revolutions later it binds again. i installed all the shims according to the instructions and there was no unusual play anywhere!! any suggestions??

I had a bad spool/worm straight from the package. Lodi sent replacement, took a while though. Contact them

you want some side to side play on the spools, but not much. when i got mine only one axle would bind in a spot, so it took it back apart and the was a small metal burr from machining sitting in it and once i got it out they both ran smooth.

I had one set do the same. Took a small file to the spool teeth for the high spots, nothing real heavy. Ran the axle on my drill press for about half hour and recleaned. Works smooth now. |

ya i ended up running them. i accually put two skinny shims on one side of the spool and one on the other and pretty much got rid of all the binding. not sure if it will affect longevity but ohwell  |
