Hello all,
I am new to this forum and have a problem with my D7E high horse cable dozer. I have a double drum for the cable winch and one of the stays broke off. This is a small metal loop that secures the end of the cable to the drum. Now the drum is smooth and I do not know where to begin the repair. I assume I do not want the cable end firmly fixed, but that it needs a little play, since that is what the old system allows.
Will I be able to rig a fix to this drum?
Am I going to have to replace the drum?
If so, where would I find another drum?
Anybody else had this problem?
Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me get this machine back in action.
