Atco Standard Roller Dismantling ?

Enter a word or two to search the forum section and click the Search Forum button.

Hello Folks

I am at present restoring a lovely old Atco Standard and have discovered one of the outer rollers has a crack in it.

Does anyone know how to dismantle the roller assembly so I could get the cracked roller repaired.

Any information welcome.

Thanks in advance John (Yorkshire Dales)

A while back there was a thread on this forum on the same subject so it may be worth searching that out. If you are contemplating a welding repair, search out a qualified welder and not just "someone who can weld", as old cast material that has picked up various contaminants over the years needs to be treated with respect.

Hello

May be worth considering a replacement, there are many Standards out there being broken up, I have one at present, although wrong end of country!! Unless you fancy a trip South, (or Courier?) What cutting width is yours?
