Swoop,

I have changed the tire out to a poly tire. I also noticed some resistance in the steering motor. The bearings seem a bit worn. I swapped that out with a used one in had on the shelf from another stock picker.

After changing all that out everything was working excellent (for me). So I put it back into rotation and let a novice operator take onto the floor. He immediately had several issues.

!. it would wrench out when he would turn to far to the right. this only happened if he was not in motion.

2. when this wrench came on and you cycled off and back on the steering would not move unless you had it in motion (forward or reverse).

I have checked all connections associated with the steering and have found nothing at of the ordinary. You mentioned before that I should take readings on the steer/tiller encoder. What are the readings that I should see when checking this?

Do you think this could be due to a bad bearing in the drive unit?

I appreciate the feed back.

Thanks.
