Bill,
A couple of times over the years, I have had one of the stainless steel
shafts on gears in the Tailtwister break, or destroy the "bearing" it rides
in and makes the Tailtwister exhibit this characteristic. Be sure to
examine the shafts and "bearing" surfaces in the bottom housing for wear
when you maintain it this time. Apparently this wear lets the shaft shift
to positions that bind the gears when it happens. Good luck!
73,
Don, WB5HAK
