Colchester Chipmaster disassemble

[jason evansParticipant @jasonevans10206]

Well, got it off eventually. Now I’m ready to take bed off stand. The bolt under the tail stock end is a bit tricky, does the whole lot need to be layed down to get that bolt out.

Sorted it. Cut down a 3/8” Allen key and used socket set with extensions to get at it. Bit fiddly but does the trick.

Next question. I want to keep the colours the same, this is the 2 tone light grey and dark blue.
any suggestions where to get matching paint. Paragon do a Colchester dove grey, which looks close but not sure on the blue.

thanks

in a senior moment I forgot to take note of which wires were which, before putting motor back in.

blue brown and black = U, V, W ?

thanks
