Hi All

I am looking at option, if there is one, to repair a slew gear due to excessive backlash on a ship loader.
As you are well aware, replacing the slew gear is a massive exercise by itself.

Wonder if anyone out there knows a company that might be able to perform the "repair" work on-site.

Regards

Waz

In the picture it appears that the pinion is not engaged fully with the slew gear. Can the pinion be moved closer to the gear?
