I have tried remedial action that did not work. However, I have just rung Buy Spares (I have only recently found your site) who have identified the parts and said that it is available (although as a special order that it could take up to 28 days). However, I have now discovered that the metal 'lug' or protruding strip through which the retaining bolt secures the concrete block to the drum has sheared. Mmmm. I think this means a welding repair but I don't know whether this is feasible. Anyway thanks for the advice.

It's somewhere between 8 - 12 years old. I'm sorry I'm a bit vague.

I have contacted various suppliers of Bosch spares who tell me that the retaining bolts and the rubber washers/ spacers that hold the concrete block (that comes as a kit) is obsolete and no longer available. The block is loose and bounces around. I believe that the same construction was used for a number of machines. Seems a shame to scrap the machine for the want of some washers. Is there something I can do?
