Changing wheels

[Susiequ]

Can anyone tell me how to change the wheel on a Rubi ND-125. Mine needs changing and can't work out how to get the wheel out!!:mad2:

Havent got that machine but surely its a case of holdig the old wheel steady and removing the nut holding it on ????

Ditto for me

hold the wheel and use a shifting spanner

Thank you for your replies. The problem was not removing the nut but actually getting the wheel out of the machine. However, worked out eventually that the flap comes off completely freeing the wheel. Next problem is the new wheel - which IS the correct one for the machine - is 127mm instead of 125mm, so my supplier is in touch with Rubi about this.

I would have thought that 2mm extra would have been fine

 

[Susiequ]

So would I, but the wheel is tight to the plastic guard at the back and will not turn!!

oh I see Suzie

well hopefully they can order a 125mm for you, they should be able too
