Cyclone One Way

[Warren]

Basic problem is my one way is slipping on the one side. The second thing is, how can i fix this. The purple tube isn't clamping the bearing hard enough to stop it from slipping hence forth making it pull to one side because there's no power going to the opposite side. Has anyone had any problems with theirs and anybody know any fixes or is it a case of buying a new one... which is the expensive option.

Hiya mate

Not sure if i can help you out with this one as i have never experienced this problem myself.
Is the one-way brand new or used?

the one way has been used for about 3 meetings and has started to slip.

sorry mate i have never come across this problem before so i dont know what to suggest. It does sound like you might need a new one.

As a last report to buying a new one way, you could try using some one way specific bearing lube. I think xray sell some, and it might just stop it slipping.

Another quick thing to possibly try is swap the outdrives left to right and see if the problem changes sides. If it does then possibly just an outdrive is needed.

If you are talking about the whole bearing+case are spinning within the oneway unit, i have experianced this problem also. At first i tried loctite to stop it sliding however that gave up after a couple of meetings, i then tried superglue. This worked perfectly however you must be careful that the superglue doesnt fall through the oneway to the other bearing. If a slight bit contacts the bearing itself it can be a pain to make free again.

When this happened to my Pro4 oneway I soaked it in Isopropal alcohol for a few minutes then sprayed it with motor cleaner.

After this the oneway gripped as good as new.
