Hi Antonio,
The wheel that flicks the chopper bar seems to be a press fit.
The shaft is knurled (ridges have been formed) and the brass insert
in the wheel is pressed over the knurled shaft.
As the other end of the shaft protrudes from the gearbox it is simple to
press the wheel on, but very difficult to remove as there is nothing
to pull on.
How many 50Hz motors do you need?
I converted several Rustraks to print-on-demand using a quartz clock
to reduce the motor power from 3W down to less than a milliwatt so they
could operate for a year on 4 D cells in remote places.
Since then I have been using off the shelf data loggers instead of
the Rustraks.
cheers, Neville Michie

Hello!
I need to change the 60 Hz motors of my recorders for using
them here in Europe. I found a suitable replacement for
230 V/ 50 Hz but I need to re-use the original main drive
plastic wheel. It appears a bit hard to remove.
Since I am not very skilled in micro mechanics, I am afraid
of breaking something.
So that,the advice of someone knowing the inner works of the
above recorders on how to remove that wheel safely would be
most appreciated.
Best wishes for the New Year,
Antonio
