Paul, probably better to turn down the Kipp lever shaft than drill your machine. Can you post some photos? ?

I think my 731 is nearly due for rplacement but at my age thats not going to happen. My recent problem with a non starting planer/thicknesser has been resolved. It required a replacement power relay (Omron Plug In Power Relay, DPDT ) is what the invoice says. I watched the engineer , a man from Venezuela would you believe, carry out the repair, a 5 minute job. Hopefully if it fails again I will be able to fix it my self

Re: K700 LCD issue

 

The combo solder sucker/ iron work's much better than the separate sucker and iron.? I have used both.

Re: K700 LCD issue

 

It’s not impossible, but it will be challenging. I used to design products with these ages ago (in Watertown,WI Mac :). If you go, this route, apart from the de-soldering/soldering challenges, be mindful of supply voltages. Blue seven segment displays have a higher forward voltage drop than red seven segment displays. So if you can’t find blue, you’ll have to discover what they did to change the drive voltage at the display.

Hi Jerry,

I have only used the pistol grip ones that run with vacuum. At home I only have a solder sucker (like what you shared but no iron) and was able to replace couple of ICs on my TV but was no fun.

Anyhow, thanks for sharing. It has a decent rating but I have no personal experience.

Hi Joe,

I can’t find the exact same PN and only one hit on ELS511. I have not used them so no insight. It is possible that if you match the physical size, they work the same way. I would at least measure the operating voltage. The one I found, operates on 5V.

You may know this but a solder sucker iron will go a long way to do this right. I can’t believe a desoldering station can be bought for under $150 from Amazon.

I am really surprised with the number and size of electrolytic capacitors shown and that is just for the 4 segments. I assume this is to reduce flicker and wonder if it is possible that the issue is on the voltage supply side vs the segments or both.

Just random thoughts ?

Re: K700 LCD issue

 

Joe, these look fairly standard components.? Here’s a link to a company that manufactures similar components.? I bet if you got the right person on phone between the two of you, you could figure out the correct replacement.?

The link: ?

It appears to be a Chinese company so maybe try Digikey first as they may be able to source them.?
