JOBO CPP-2 (week motor vs 3010)

[shootsingh]

This is my first post on apug 
Although i have read all the related forums but they are over 3 years old. Just been lucky to grab a CPP-2 n expert drum 3010. I have read all the related documents on web including jobo site and others on this forum talking about motor upgrade etc.
I am in search of someone who has got the same spec as me and have used it sucessfully . I mean cpp-2 first version serial10xxx without any upgrade, working with drum 3010 with 1000 ml chemical mix.

Although i wasnt able to run it as my lift was already cracked and i didnt wanted to break it further. But it runs drum 2563 very well from the lower slot. I am also in need of new lift incase some one can offer in uk or anywhere.
Thanks for reading my essay
Any personel experience with the above problem? Please write to help

I seem to recall they're not compatible. I also recall that I've read an article suggesting a windshield wiper motor could replace the original. BMW,Mercedes,?
If the CPP still works don't kill it with the 3010 drum. There was also information on burning up the circuit board.

Thanks john. Yes its currently inworking state. May be i wait for another one on market and sellthis to someone who dont need to run expert drum.

I know it may sound banal, but I think eBay is the best place to find such thing (no Craigslist here). In looking for some Jobo material on the eBay I recently (a few days ago) saw several Jobo lifts, and several Jobo film processors, among them a couple of CPP-2. The German site seems to be better provided with Jobo offers.

The handle is broken on my lift so I just raise and lower the 3010 drum by hand.

Same i would, but even if its not broken we still need hands to lift. I dont believe jobo is made in german. Tanks are built like tanks though but the lift could be made alot better

If anyone needs jobo specialist ?
There is a good news in german. Even new ones. Also upgrading motor etc, all spare parts good prices

Since i have neither the drum nor the machine as yet, I'd love to get some experienced input here. For 8x10 processing, which Jobo rotator and which drums are best? I already discovered that the CPE-2 can't take the 3010 expert drum. From what's said above, it seems that the CPP-2 may not be quite strong enough?

Thanks,

Asher

for 8x10, Its 3005 with cpa2 or cpp2. With serial 22000 above for cpp2. I am going to try my 3010 this week with my cpp2 (earlier motor) but will use half the chemical instead of 1 lt, with 5 sheets instead of 10, so the motor dont get panic. Incase the motor fails then the whole thing got to be upgraded from germany for €250.

I picked up a Jobo CPP 2 with bottles and tanks here for $125US plus shipping.
