Agree with Ken here, I just bought a 2000 and worked it out if I upgraded everything would only work out £70 cheaper than buying a new unit.

Things to check when buying second I have found:
- check the bearing and shaft by seeing if the stone runs true and straight
-- if you need a new shaft the wheel can be corroded to shaft so could require a new wheel.
- check the drive wheel to see if cracked. Seems that others complain of the wheel being cracked from the center
-check the paint. Seems that the older units had poor paint that chips off after rust
- inspect the drive wheel condition looking for cracks chips and if can be removed
- check the tool holder as bushings were worn through on mine causing tool holder not to be straight and corrosion on the universal support

Hello

I am just trying to restore a supergrind grind 2000 but struggling to remove the motor. Do I need to knock the pin through the chassis from the  bump side with a light hammer?

Thanks
