[QUOTE="Sick Lenny, post: 9569794, member: 247943"] How is yours broken? Is it the typical split down the side? If so, glue alone will not work because as soon as you try to put it back on it will split again. Also, with glue you run the risk of getting it in the encoder wheel itself and that is a problem. The washer goes on the side with the shaft, and should be just the right size to keep the seam/split from opening when you put it back on the shaft, and it should be snug enough that it will stay in place without need for glue. It is acting like a clamp or a collar. It also has to be skinny enough not to obscure the holes in the encoder as well, so it doesn't get in the way of passing through the sensor. See below: [IMG]https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=0B3fpxwOE8wVdWGcxRE5Gb2xqQnM[/IMG] Even though you should not need it, I recommend a tiny dab of glue on the back of the washer to hold it in place.
