Steve Hankes Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Russ, That is absolutely GORGEOUS! I have never seen that design before. Holy mackerel is that a deco tour de force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Borg Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 7 hours ago, Steve Hankes said: Hello Roger, Question- is the back case orientation correct? I do believe the rear motor case orientation to be correct. This was something that I considered when getting ready to reassemble the motor. The orientation is driven / supported by the following: The motor mounting bracket on this model is bolted directly to tapped holes in the stator, thus positively identifying the orientation of the stator ==> The original stator leads for the start and run windings were of a length that would only allow direct exit through the wire-routing plate just inside the switch housing bump out ==> Orientaion defined. Beyond that (it would seem) if the switch and line cord bump-out were oriented to either side, an interference between the (natural hanging) of the switch pull-chain and the line cord would result. It may be that other variations exist that would indicate alternate orientation, but this is what I came up with. It's been a while since mine was open, but one of these days I'll take a peek again. Appreciate the thoughtful description. All the best, take care... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made them with optional 22" or 28" blades. The one I restored was a 22" model. I think it safe to state it is one of one being 22". I believe there is a 28" model like it out there. The unique GE motor was 2 speeds through the windings. It was optional 1750 RPM or 1150 RPM. I no longer have it. It is in the hands of another member.

Russ Huber Posted May 10 Author Share Posted May 10 (edited) Steve, going left to right, pick which one you want? I am not sure if you can message me or not being you're a guest? If not, have Patrick Ray message me your address. Edited May 10 by Russ Huber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
