Re: (ET) sickle bar motor

[Harold Zimmerman - Clean Power Supply <cleanpower emypeople net>]

 Good Morning Mike,

 Without researching this too hard, I think this motor is either an 
E10M or E12 (permanent magnet version of course) drive motor. If you 
give me the length of the magnet housing without the end caps and the 
length of the magnets themselves I could tell you and maybe help you 
out. There may also be a model number inside the wiring cover which 
could be helpful.

 Sincerely,

 Harold Zimmerman
