Early Bipolar motor in the manner of Belding. Mounted atop its original wooden base, this motor appears untouched since new. Base displays some signs of damage/separation and could be easily repaired. Ornate details still adorn the motors end panels. This motor was tested and we found it to be operational at 10V DC (though may be specified to operate at a higher voltage). Dimensions Height: 5.5″ Width: 11.5″ Depth: 7.

Nice early bipolar Bates motor. Really has a beautiful look to it and it’s still in nice condition. Great looking I’d tag with a very low serial number. I really don’t know the weight on it but maybe 600 lbs? It’s big but still manageable.
