Looking for help with Davis treadle irons
In the process of trying to get the "wobble" out of the drive wheel, I removed the cone screw. I re-greased and replaced it. After a few rotations, wobble still present, the wheel "grabs" and screw is driven further in. Eventually, it becomes too tight to treadle and is difficult to back the screw out. The lock nut on the outside of the right leg keeps the screw from backing out, but it does nothing to keep it from going further in. Any ideas? I had another thought, also. Can the wobble in a drive/fly wheel be addressed from the pitman or would it always be the axle/cone screw? I am thinking if I can fix the wobble and it is well greased, the wheel won't grab. I've attached a picture of the cone screw.
