After replacing parts on my BS, I have found a gear in the gear box to be worn preventing it from advancing the bisquets. Is there any way around this? Or do I have to replace the entire generator or just the gear box? And where would I find one? The BS is full of salmon now, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sue

Sorry to hear about your problem. I hope your smoker is less than a year old. Warranty will cover. I know that won't help you today with a smoker full of salmon. If less than a year, contact Bradley by phone tomorrow. If more, I suspect you will have to replace the entire smoke generator, unless something has changed on parts availability.

Thanks Bill - unfortunately, it is 3 years old. I suppose I could get the generator from Chez? Or do I need to go direct to Bradley? Right now I am hand feeding the BS - it's going to be a long day and a day without fishing! Thanks for the input.

There are a lot of folks that have had their generator replaced that might have that gear you need. Many lose the advance motor, and while under warranty, have received a complete new generator. Putting out a plea for parts might help.
Yes, Chez can sell you a generator. He might also have a parts answer for you, if you ask that question first.
If I had known you were in Rescue, I could have lent you the generator off one of my smokers. I have two, and I am in Cameron Park, on the hill overlooking the Airport from the East Side. Small world! I called all your number without success. Left a message on your cellphone.

Bill - I agree! You ARE the man!! Thanks for the offer, but unfortunately I was in Bodega Bay at the time, fishing - well at least I had hoped to on Sunday but instead spent the entire day hand feeding the BS. The salmon turned out great, by the way and caught a 20 pounder on Monday which I will smoke on my SS BS at home - I know that one works! I will send out my plea for the gear box though - that was a great idea - thanks.
