 All the bearings on both the upper and lower wheel were replace to see if it will improve
the accuracy of the orbital position reading. See drawing SK-2489 for list of bearings used.
The encoder was also replaced to match the style used elsewhere.

This morning Don Jackson commented to Grant Minor that he believed the tank lid was still not raised high enough to safely operate the Remote Handling
bridge and trolleys, despite it having been raised 0.5" yesterday to the point of engaging the limit switches (see e-log from yesterday).  Don
said he believed this to be the case as a result of a visual inspection with binoculars from the outside of the tank, as well as from the views achievable

Upper and lower resonator trolleys received mounting plates and brackets to accommodate DC motor controls for updated drive motors.
Entry  Friday, January 31, 2014, 10:07, Travis Cave, Cyclotron, Standard Operation, 2C removal 
2C has been successfully removed from the cyclotron and is now currently sitting in the B2 level of the RH building. A tank access was needed to feel
the stuck QDL.

Entry  Tuesday, February 28, 2017, 15:45, Jason Kapalka, Cyclotron, Standard Operation, 2C extraction probe removal and reinstallation 
2C extraction probe was removed from cyclotron tank on 2017-02-07 by RH and Probes group members with service 
bridge, upper resonator trolley, and 2C attachment. Three QDLs were disengaged remotely, while one had to be 
disengaged locally in the tank (just like in 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016).
Entry  Tuesday, February 14, 2012, 15:40, Grant Minor, Trolley, Standard Operation, 2C Removal - all 4 QDLs were actuated remotely this year! 2C_probe_Feb_14_2012_labelled.JPG2C_probe_solenoid_5_Feb_14_2012_labelled.JPG
Today Remote Handling staff (Maico Dalla Valle, Travis Cave) used the Remote Handling 2C probe removal trolley to remove the probe assembly from inside
the Cyclotron.  This is a regular yearly MRO task that is done every shutdown.
This task involves lining up the 2C trolley on the service bridge with the 2C probe assembly remotely with cameras, using a set of alignment markings
Entry  Tuesday, February 17, 2015, 11:28, Travis Cave, Cyclotron, Standard Operation, 2C Installation 
2C extraction probe has been re-installed in the cyclotron. After some problems on the first install attempt, do to a busted micro-switch that was causing
the 24 Volt DC system to short out.
