I finally reached someone in the US who is responsive and appears to be able
to source the gearbox. I haven't actually ordered yet as we are overseas and
need to figure out timing etc.

__________________________

Mark,

The gearbox is available. Pricing is $521 ea. FCA Charleston, SC and
delivery time is about 8 weeks.

The product would be available from the factory in France in 4 weeks if you
wanted to air freight the item. It normally costs about $3.50 per kg.

If you want to proceed with an order, I can put you in touch with one of our
distributors.

Best regards,

Bill,

This is the alternator division of Emerson electric that handles Leroy
Somer.

When I called the number they said that they do not handle the

gearboxes.

Do you have any other info?

Hi,

I called the phone number and they have no info on the gearbox.

Would you please email me your correspondence with them.

Eric and all,

The Leroy Somer gear reduction gearbox is part number 102014. It can

be

ordered from Leroy Somer at the US phone 731-967-3000. I got this
information from gears-usa"at"leroy-somer.com. They told me via email

that

it was available.

I have not called the number for a price because I am in Greece now.

Let

me

know if this works out for you.

Best,

Bill

It seems like quite a few people are tackling the problems servicing

their

outhaul gearboxes. I happened to notice the other day that the top

lip

seal

was shot on mine and started on a two day project to disassemble the
gearbox.

I tried just about everything to get the inner shaft removed, except
"getting medieval with a sledge hammer" as one of the other owners
demonstrated. After bending several 8mm steel brackets and breaking

my

puller tool, we finally succeeded with a 20mm thick steal bracket

that

was

fabricated for the purpose. The nice thing about the approach that

finally

succeeded for us was that all the force was placed on the outer

shaft of

the

gearbox, none on the boom or the other components of the gearbox.

I'll

post

a picture when I have a chance.

I found the model information posted by one of the other owners

here:

Manufacturer: LS Leroy Somer
Made in France
6015 Angoulene
Reducteur N 0256889
Type MVA M33C
Rduction 1/60

I have not been able to reach Leroy Somer via their contact page.

Can

anyone

recommend a reliable and inexpensive source to order the gearbox or

parts

from? Any pricing info?

One other question: it seems that the outhaul gearbox causes more

problems

than the main sail furling gearbox. Is that right? Is the latter

just

less

exposed to the elements?

thanks, Mark
