I bought a genesis for a few day`
i spin the bearing at the first time,it can spins about 6-9 seconds
but later i add some lob to it for reducing it noise
about a day later, it can only spin for a seconds,… :-[
help me !! what is the problem and what should i do???
This happened to me too unfortunately.
It’s the lube; did u put 2 drops in straight from the bottle or pin drops, because the more you put the less it’ll spin? You’re gonna need to just play with it to slowly reduce the lube.
With lube, the bearing will last longer than a bearing without lube.
If you mean how long will it take till it gets back to normal, I would say at least a couple of weeks if you play with it every day; I put lube on my Genesis like 3 weeks ago and it’s still playing slowly. The more you play with it, the less time it should take.
Putting Thin lube over thick lube to get rid of the Thick lube? Nope that is just going to keep it responsive, if you want it unresponsive again without having to work down the lube you will need to clean the bearing in mineral spirits or light fluid and THEN add one tiny drop of THIN lube to protect the bearing.
Yes I am saying exactly that, check the other bearing cleaning threads, others have pointed this out before and it has been stated that his exact wording was incorrect, he was filming these video clips and guess what all of the text matches his words in the video, go through them, a lot of them have text that matches speech but doesn’t make sense.
MAYBE but the point is that the bearing is responsive and wont spin for long, your reply if followed would just push more gunk into the bearing. Do you clean laundry by putting more dirt in your load, or do you remove the dirt with laundry detergent? My response would clean the bearing of all gunk and re-lube thus freeing the balls inside of the bearing from anything that would impede their movement. Rather than be a troll and point out how incorrect someone may or may not be, why don’t you just correct the person who may be wrong, or suggest an alternate method of achieving the same outcome.
