RE: (ET) Mower deck motor
My guess is
the brushes on that motor are frozen. It happens to old motors
FREQUENTLY. Free them up and it will spin. Where is the rubbing
at?

Hi,
I'm trying to get my mower deck going and two of the
three motors jumped right to life and leveled off with a nice hum. the third no
so good, although spinning not near the RPM's of the other two. Being a
curious idiot I took it apart, the top bearing is in good shape there is some
minor rust speckled though out the inside of the housing and the magnets are in
tacked. There still seems to be some rubbing going on
internally. How much power do I apply to them for bench
testing? Is there a schematic available for these? Is there a lower
bearing? If so how do you get to it? What is the proper gauge of the
wire that is feeding the motor? I'd appreciate any input, as these are
antiques and I don't want to F* up any parts that can be
fixed. Thanks for the answers to my last posting (36v Charger) I'm
learning everyday.
