Oil tube to bearing on the cover.

So, what's the pointy thingy on top? Some have it,... some don't?

Label wires A,B,C Make pairs: A B A C B C Resistance will be measured between two wires in each pair. Use Toms diagram provided in other post to identify wires

As Stan mentioned in second post is how it is done. Different approaches but clean and polish the brass high points. I then airbrush the black areas. Never scrape or pick away paint however use 1000-2000 grit sandpaper with soapy water to knock paint off high areas. Any black areas which get messed up can be touched up with airbrush vs starting from scratch. Sanding marks are then hand polished with old cotton shirt and car polish. Badge/tags cleaned under hot water and toilet bowl cleaner. Then cleared. Generally use flat black enamel paint from Testors or automotive base paint

This is not correct for motors with start windings.

If you are selling, I would be interested. The parts I making is for a 12 inch. Never know if I end up getting another one.

A special graphite lubricant... Will last indefinitely... I'd guess "an unspecified" over "an unlimited" period of time?

95 introduction back lever had them. If you dig around on the old website Hoehn disassembled a 95 introduction back lever on the long thread. The Briner back lever patent above was filed in 97. Briner's patented design was introduced in 97 season. The 95-introduction back lever was designed by either Briner or Pillsbury more than likely late 94 motor season. Charles Meston was a pencil pusher, brother engineer Alexander Meston passed spring of 93.

Thanks, Russ.

1895-96. Must be a lubrication tube cover.

German influence

Base should be turned 180° ?

I always put oil on the inside of the bearing before I reassemble any fan. I would not use carb cleaning on the bearing. If it soaks into the bearing that might cause a problem.

Hi Dan, maybe these will help you see. I may be incorrect on my initial assessment of your motor, but for now, I stand with it.
