Go for a rca ive taken my clipcord connection off and it might need some lube in the bearings and a good clean. Contact mike on here hes good at replying but dont run it over 6v its got a 6v motor any more than that and it's good bye motor.

It's the clipcord, an RCA connection is best for Centris, the machine demands perfect current flow. If you must use a clipcord use one that is VERY high tension. It's because of the Centri that I now favor RCA jacks for all machines,the current flow is more consistent.

I agree its probably the clipcord. I've recently switched over to rca exclusively. They are way more consistent in power and haven't had any problems with them shorting out. Before I was going thru clipcords left and right. Especially with rotaries they really need a consistent power supply that only a rca can provide

hi my name is a adam, and i'm an R.c.aholic.
all my machines are converted to rca- rotary and coil, no pivoting swinging clip that has a mind of it's own, now badly made clipcord to throw across the room :)

I would be very surprised if the Clip cord connection was the main fault...

Do let us know how it performs with the RCA, if it still studders send it on to Mike who will overhaul it for you till it's sweet, he's a very decent guy to deal with.
