22. Motor Runs on High Speed Only

22-A.

 

Breaker point condenser (connected across terminals 92 and 94) is 

shorted. Replace condenser unit (69) as in section 19. 

 

22-B. Tungsten points (102) may be fused together. Replace governor (100) 

as in sections 5, 5-A, 13, 13-A, 13-B 14, and 14-A. 

 

23. Motor Jerks When Running, Especially on Low Speed 
 

23-A. Breaker point condenser (connected across points 92 and 

94) is open. This is also accompanied by excessive sparking 
at the governor breaker points (102). Replace condenser unit 

(69) as in section 19. 

 

23—B. Open circuit in resistor (43). Replace resistor by taking down 

back end of motor as in sections 5, 5-A, 5-13. Change resistor and 

reassemble as in sections 11, 12, 13, 13-B, 14, 14-A. 

 

24. Motor Runs Normally, Except 1st Speed is Too Low  

    (Less than 275 R.P.M. at whipper spindle sleeve (20). 

 

24—A. Governor (100) needs replacement as in sections 5, 5-A, 13, 13-B, 

14, 14—A. 

 

25. Motor Does Not Run At All. 

 

25—A. Switch Rod (115) is short, or switch (105) is open. Repair as in 

section 1, 5, 5-A, 5-B and examine silver contacts on 105, Possibly 

switch lever (105) should be bent down on the contact end and up in the 

center so as to touch end of switch rod. Reassemble as in sections 11, 

12, 13, 13-A, 13-B, and 14-A. 

 

25-B. Commutator brushes (19) need replacement. See section l0. 

 

25-C. Governor brushes (97) need replacement. Repair as in sections 5, 
5-A, 12, 13, 13-A, 13-B, and 14-A. 

 

25—D. Motor Bearings (45) frozen. See section 3. 

 

25—E. Whipper Spindle Sleeves frozen in gear case bearings.  

See section 3. 

 

 

25—F. Cord broken. Test and repair cord as in sections l—A, 2, and 2-A.
