Barrel Loader questions/problems

[Anonymous]

I got a berrel loader today, I hooked one hot terminal to one clip, and the ground to the other clip. this was all done on the R. I turned the proper knob on the R and... nothing. Flipeed the wires around...nothing.

Can you guys help me?

Heres a pic


I also cant find where the barrel loader ramp clip goes. It is the black strip on the main section.

---Got it to work a little bit, the platform will vibrate but the barrels can't make it up the ramp. I took it apart to inspect it, and the rectifier disk was corroded like heck. Could this be the problem?

Get out the volt meter. Check and see if you are actually getting power. Go from there. Not familiar with the thing. good luck.

Jerry,

Here's the link for the #32996 modern version, which shows where the clip goes -

FYI - The rectifier disc is #1041-13. I'd recommend replacing the #395-29 insulation, too.
