Title: Honing wheel on T8 not running true
Post by: Martinwilliamson on December 13, 2020, 01:29:51 PM
Hi - i recently purchased a T8 (in August) and the honing wheel does not run true - i thought it may be me but after buying a composite wheel it has not solved the problem - can anyone help - i have taken the honing wheel off and the whole mechanism seems to wobble - should it be like this?

This has come up before (https://forum.tormek.com/index.php?topic=3300.0), and no, it shouldn't be that way.  Contact Tormek Support (support@tormek.se).

I had same problem. It was not the honing wheel.  It was the drive wheel. I contacted support. Received new drive wheel in a few days.  Problem solved.

See my note about the same thing as you.
