Works like almost new. Appreciate you viewing and commenting. God bless Stay safe

This was cool, I had no idea these things had planetary gear sets like that

I felt like putting mine back together was a lot of work. Glad to see you got it whipped.

First time was tough on the disassembly and reassembly. But the second time I knew how things came apart and went back for the most part.. God bless Stay safe

Thanks Max. I was not so sure that I had not bought junk for a while. But it was fixable. Took a chance on it when I bought it. Got it real cheap. Knew I would have to repair it .bought as is no returns. It said works but not like it should. God bless Stay safe

Anthony -- nice job !

The whole assembly appears relatively dry. I have grease oosing out of a s/hand one of these. Where do you read-off the torque that is set - there is no mark on the body.?

The Tapmatic has a indicator on the body to to show you where to set for the size tap. Setting it at the right mark have never broke a tap.

Maybe I missed it. What ended up being the issue? Was it the missing ball bearing?

I think the missing bearing was the major problem but the grease was hard as a rock did not help. God bless Stay safe

Just bought a 30X off ebay, seems to work, but loks like it had a pretty rough life. Looks like someone used channelocks insead of the handle, so I might turn the outer shell to clean it up and re-anodize it. One difference between the 30X and yours is that the 30 uses snap rings, but without holes so they are tricky to take out. I was able to unscrew the top pressure adjuster, which reveals the springs, so easier tosimply put them back in towards the final reassembly. Anyway, thanks so much for the video, now i can go the whole way with it!
