lmaker Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 I recently purchased an old motorized kickwheel second hand (originally from pottery supply house). I took it home and put it together but every time I press down on the pedal to get the wheel spinning...there's a lot of burning rubber....Have I done something wrong? Has anyone else had this problem? I saw it in use before I bought it and there was no burning rubber... When you press down on the pedal, the rubber disk makes contact with the large stone wheel and spins. It does this...but it is really destroying the rubber disk.

TJR Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 Start the big fly wheel moving first by kicking with your right leg. Once it gets going, you should be able to apply the rubber drive wheel. TJR. It's a lot of weight to move from a dead stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
