Hey guys,
I found a guy who was selling an Iron cobra Power Glide double pass pedal, and decided to buy it off him.
Now while everything works fine, the one problem is the slave pedal. Is it meant to be harder to push then the main pedal? Because for me it seems a lot harder. Putting both beaters flat on the head and letting them go shows the main pedal's beater continues to swing bac and forth on its own will much longer then the slave pedal, which stops swinging rather quickly.
I've taken the chain off the slave pedal, and spun the cam on its own and put some lubricant spary, and it spings really fast and freely. Ive replaced the spring with a pretty good condition one off my old single pedal, and while everything seems fine when I test it beforehand, as soon as I put the metal adjustable plate connecting the two pedals, it slows down. Is it due to the weight that the slave pedal now has to deal with? These pedals come with so much adjustabily, perhaps the previous owner adjusted the slave to require more force and I haven't spotted the adjsutment needed? Oh, and I have played around with the spring tension overall.
Thank you to anyone who can help,
michael.
