Greetings,
I asked this a couple
times, but it was always buried at the end of long messages, which gives me a
clue how few people make it to the end of those :-)
IIRC, the RD1 drives have a
low rpm point where they're known to rattle. I guess this is torque
reversals, or something like that from the engine. Anyway, can someone
confirm that this is true, and tell me what rpm this is supposed to happen
at? I've never been able to idle below 1500 or so, but now, I could
probably idle down to 1000 easily. The problem is that I seem to hit this
rattle mode at 1100-1200 rpm, so I've got my idle set at 1400 for now.
Thanks,
Rusty (wondering if I
should have inspected the redrive following the oil out)
PS- TIG and Plasma machines
both got 1.5 inches of water before I picked them up, but I dried them out
yesterday, and they both work now (thank goodness). Fortunately
nothing expensive was damaged in the flood, assuming we don't have to replace
the carpet in the great room.
