Schooling in Motion

 plastic gauge it came in within specification the tolerance the kobota book called for were .0007 to .0020 and we measured .0015

 upon disassembling this motor we found no rings. one thing i can take from this motor dissembly is i know the names for the parts allot better and there locations on the motors. another piece of information i learned it the 4 Cly are a shaky motor due to being only a 4. one thing kobota did to stop this is add weight balancers ran off an idler gear.

this is a corroded battery i found at work on a service i did. just tells you always check every thing when servicing machiniory

kubota

30 hours of work last week and 12 hours of school

Today my group and i started the disassemblly on the kubota 3300 diesel motor. I noticed it doesn't take  long to get in a chest deep out of order dirty mess when disassembling a motor. We got the head off and were into the tops of the pistons in a totals of 20 Min's. but something i saw others doing is taking card board and labeling it then sticking there parts into for a tidy little package.

Caution Learning in Progress

 This is a capture on the modis for the blower motor on the black dodge. the blower motor has a resistor box. the box gives the motor less resitanc as the switch is turned up.

The picture here is of a little dc motor we built in class.

Diagrams and Schematics

Some things I've learned at school have helped me in my life.  For example:  we had to wire up a switch for hazards, left turn signal and right turn signal.  Some guys and I stumbled around for about 45 minutes, trying to figure out how to wire the switch.  Our instructor then gave us the wiring diagram.  We proceeded with the wiring and it was done in no time.  If you don't succeed the first time, read the directions!  Another example:  A student brought in a car to have her door lock switch fixed.  I was test probing around locking doors, unlocking doors, not knowing what I was doing.  I then printed out the schematic and found the car runs off relays, switching grounds to make the doors lock and unlock.  So what I've learned is wiring, diagrams and schematics can be your friend.

learnig in progress

Every day im working is another day of learning. Today i had to change the hoop rings for a coak trailer the hoops where bent due to some wire that was loaded.Wrs also has me changing altinators and leaf springs  and the 1in air gun kicks my but i was using it for about 5 whole minits tighning the ubolts. The u bolts take alot of tork to make them right."hours 280"

fork lift problems

This was a fork lift i was working on at work and it had a wiring problem. the right side blinkers were not working.it all turned out to be the switch on the calum. right now for my summer intenship im at 225 hours

somthing iv learned is dont get in to a d

just finished my second week at wrs. a few things iv learned is if you mess up its ok just dont let it happen again and make sure you tell some one. the guys in the shop will give you a hard time for a little while but it wouldnt be nearly as bad as if you tried to hide it.Another thing iv learned is always try too look as if your doing something because in no time another project will come up . last is in class pay attention to the
