6045 Rattle

[Lahn Doe]

I have two 6045 and have been using it for about 2 weeks. I noticed one of them was making some noise. I took the front cover off and the propeller was kind of loose. I take the cover off the good one and the propeller is tight and then I see there is a shaft for it. The noisy one didn't have one. So what happened to the shaft? Did it break off or was it left off?

Just curious what size tank are they in?

It probably broke. The 6045 shafts were tight fitting and didn't come out but I have seen a couple snap, we think this happened when they were pressed in with the hydraulic press, they cracked and later broke. Send a PM and we will replace your motor.

125. I don't think it's enough flow for it.
