    rotary hammer drills with torque limiting at the same time

    Tracing backwards from the chuck, where is the clutch in the power train? The hammer mechanism is inside the big gear wheel, so the clutch must be somewhere so that it doesn't have to allow hammering motion to pass, since a clutch cannot do that, sp far as I know. Am I wrong? The power train...

    rotary hammer drills with torque limiting at the same time

    would rotary drills with torque limiting and hammering at the same time be of any use to people? Ordinary rotary hammer drills forego torque limiting when on hammer and forego hammer while on torque limiting. Would we like to have both functions at the same time? What for?

    lack of hot water fron Triton LP 3000 shower.

    Hi wingcoax. Thanks. I'm told the valves also prevent cross flow. I suppose the temperature control opens valves to give the right amounts? I'm told agree the blocked pipe possibility also but perhaps a valve has got itself stuck due to limescale. What do you reckon? I live in a hard water area...

    lack of hot water fron Triton LP 3000 shower.

    Hi terridoh. I haven't checked it yet but I will. Thanks for the suggestion. When the temperature knob is turned, what moves inside a good shower to let in more hot and less cold? Does the action have anything to do with the inlet valves? The booklet says they are to prevent cross flow. It...

    mixer shower valve is it faulty??

    Hi again. I think the problem could be a sticking hot water inlet valve. Triton says I should clean it now and again to remove debris. If it sticks it only allows an amount of flow according to the position where it stuck. This may mean that insufficient hot water is allowed in. Does anyone know...

    mixer shower valve is it faulty??

    I have the same problem but with a Triton LP 3000. I wonder if it could be caused by a blocked hot feed pipe to the shower, such as limescale? I've asked this question myself, today, on this forum. Let's see what the experts say. How old is your shower? Mine is 14 years old. Is it better to...

    lack of hot water fron Triton LP 3000 shower.

    The hot water from the same feed is OK. The shower used to be ok but has recently gone lukewaqrm at max heat setting. What could be wrong inside the shower? I haven't yet tried anything.

    relative cost/benefit situation

    Hi. Is it better to replace a low cost shower myself or call in the Triton Showers expert to repair my one? What are the two costs involved? By the way, my country is only classified as "unknown" because UK is not on the Sign Up list. We may be a backward race over here but some of us...
