I actually need to double check my retaining collar; I noticed (by accident) that I am able to push on the spinner cone and move the shaft in and out of the motor a little bit. Would be a lot worse without the retaining collar (I think).


Hi Joe

I just tried it with my brand new motor (never been run) and I can get the shaft and can to move back and forth a few thou too. I can see the movement when I push and pull on it. I hope this is normal?!?!?! My retaining collar is solid as a rock on the shaft. Anybody else with the Scorpion 4035-250 have the same thing going on?
