fiber planetary gears

doyle keiser · 04-07-2009

On the DW953 type 2, are the primary gears which are fiber available in steel. Are the fiber gears functional or cost cutting measure?

Hey doyle,
As far as I know the fiber gears are not available in steel..the gearbox has to be replaced as a whole unit..part # 380264-06 avail at ereplacementparts.com..
the gears are functional as a engineering torque transferring mechanism designed to have a less load operating capability on the dc battery power source..oh...and it costs less..

hope this has been helpful..?
