mending things: Dyson DC14 beater clutch
http://mr-ives.blogspot.com/2011/03/dyson-dc14-beater-clutch.html
Sunday, March 13, 2011. Dyson DC14 beater clutch. I've got a Dyson DC14 vacuum cleaner. See my other posting on general servicing. I decided to take the cleaner apart to see what might be the problem. First I needed to remove the lower plate. This is held in place by 3 twist fastenings which can be undone with a coin. Once the plate is removed you can see the brush beater. You can see that the beater brush device gets en-wrapped with hair, string and anything that is long and thin. It pushes out.It i...

mending things: Reducing the energy consumption of Sky+ HD recorder and Samsung LED TV
http://mr-ives.blogspot.com/2013/12/reducing-energy-consumption-of-sky-hd.html
Thursday, December 5, 2013. Reducing the energy consumption of Sky HD recorder and Samsung LED TV. Common themes across most of my posts are energy conservation , its monitoring and technology. This post sort of combines all three in one. We also have a 46" Samsung LED TV which is hooked up to the Sky unit . Recently I moved the IAMs and connected them to the Sky unit and the Samsung TV, really just to see actually how much energy a fairly modern TV hard disk recorder would consume. 2) The Sky HD unit va...

mending things: Fixing a noisy motor in a NAD 5120 turntable
http://mr-ives.blogspot.com/2015/05/i-was-recently-given-nad-5120-by-my.html
Tuesday, May 12, 2015. Fixing a noisy motor in a NAD 5120 turntable. I was recently given a NAD 5120 by my good pal Stephen Ansell from HiFi Hangar. The Deck was in very good condition, but had a noisy motor I've stripped and serviced a few of these decks as described in my other NAD blog, b ut this time I decided to make a video of stripping the deck and giving the motor a quick service. Kind regards, Nick. June 27, 2016 at 8:25 AM. Sure Nicholas , you can find me on gmail and my name is Jonathan Ives.

mending things: Replacing the bearings in an AEG lavamat washing machine
http://mr-ives.blogspot.com/2008/02/replacing-bearings-on-aeg-lavamat.html
Friday, February 29, 2008. Replacing the bearings in an AEG lavamat washing machine. We have had an AEG Lavamat washing machine for 9 years and it's given very good service, probably running on average, a wash load a day for a family of four, including two teenage boys. I googled AEG and bearings and found this fantastic website. Anyway I opened the filter hatch, drained off the excess water and removed the filter. Amongst the water was a lolly stick, which had been in someone's pocket and made it's ...

mending things: Restoring a JVC JL-A1 Turntable
http://mr-ives.blogspot.com/2014/01/restoring-jvc-jl-a1-turntable.html
Sunday, January 26, 2014. Restoring a JVC JL-A1 Turntable. Last year I acquired a Pioneer PL-12D turntable which I restored and runs very well. In the blog describing the process. I mentioned that I believed that much of the content would be suitable for a wide range of 1970's Japanese belt drive turntables from the likes of Pioneer, Sony, Sansui , Kenwood/Trio etc. That it was similar to the PL-12 and I wanted to find out, plus I enjoy working on decks. I finally tried playing a record. The deck had...

mending things: Mending a pair of M-AUDIO BX5a monitors
http://mr-ives.blogspot.com/2011/09/mending-pair-of-m-audio-bx5a-monitors.html
Sunday, September 11, 2011. Mending a pair of M-AUDIO BX5a monitors. I should state at this point, that this is quite a hard repair to carry out. Some forums imply this is easy, but it took me around 90 minutes to do the first. Speaker, and 60 to do the second. You have to substantially dismantle the speaker and remove two caps which are soldered and glued in position. There are a lot of steps along the way. A tray to keep all the screws in. A medium sized Philips screw driver. A No 3 metric Allen key.

mending things: Restoring a Pioneer PL-12D Turntable
http://mr-ives.blogspot.com/2013/07/restoring-pioneer-pl-12d-turntable.html
Sunday, July 28, 2013. Restoring a Pioneer PL-12D Turntable. The deck in question was in great condition, and very complete. Both the 45 RPM adapter and the additional screw-in balance weight (for heavier cartridges) were both included, and it came with a classic Shure M75HE Mk 2 cartridge. I then removed the lid. if you open the lid, then hold the back either side of the hinges. You will find a slight pressure to the right disengages the lid from the hinges which use a rather clever lug system. Gaining ...
