The shafts break!!,
Has 6 belts to it, a 20 pound chain on top, plus HUGE sprockets to gear it dwn some more.
Bearing temp stickers on each bearing because they run too HOT . (and BREAK ) ( to monitor after the fact (cause you can not see them in use )
More belts to accessories .....
plus more stuff.
Maybe a "well" designed one would work, but they all are under worrisome watch full eyes .
The key word would be a well -"designed one."-
With as much effort to replace ( and EXPENSE ) it might as well be tossed.
A new one is 3500 bucks , and now back to Sq one to repeat all the above *(if you live through it)*
So, why repeat the same mistakes over and over.
I think thats the definition of stupid ?... or crazy ! ?
I would think a well designed planetary would mean check the oil once in awhile and be done.
