I sheared some bolts on the drive-side wheel.  When I contacted TimberKing to discuss the fix, they let me know that the 1220 has been modified and a bearing-keeper system was added, which should prevent the issue.  They sent me out the plates and bolts the next day.  Installed them this weekend and the mill is running great and I think the issue with shearing the bolts is history.





Mod is the black plates (front and back) and longer bolts.  Installed on both the drive side and idle side band-wheels.

Magicman,

You are correct about the service. I have contaced TimberKing a number of times with questions, everytime, they were spot-on with their advice and always very timely with any parts or equipment I needed.

Thank You Sponsors!
