I am sure this issue has been discussed but can't find it so I am posting this question. I have a double roller grain mill they had a black rubber o-ring on one of the rollers. Somehow it broke off and now my mill doesn't work very well. It keeps jamming and not rolling at all, feels like it is slipping as the crank will turn but rollers will not. Anyone have a fix for this? Do I buy a new o-ring if they sell them, if it is even possible to take a roller off and replace the o-ring?

The rubber o-ring is superfluous and breaks off very early in the mill's use. This is normal and should not affect the mill's operation. If you're turning the crank but the rollers aren't spinning, then you have another issue. Perhaps you have the gap set too tightly?

My o-ring came off a long time ago, but the mill still works fine.
Like kombat said, I think it's something else.

Is the set screw for the handle tight. If you are turning the handle at least one of the rollers should turn
