New Motor

Yippie, the new motor arrived! Well yes, it arrived a week ago. However tonight I started working on the Master Cool Swamp Cooler.
Take out the old motor, take out the switch assembly. Unwire the switch, take the cage off the shaft and reverse the procedure to put it all back together. Now for the most vital part. BALANCE. That is why there are shims on the mounting bolts.




Ok I tested it out in the shed and everything worked. The Pump for the water and the blower motor. Now I've got it back in the house and the blower still works but now the pump won't. Guess I'll double check the wiring again.

By the way, that is red paint on the work bench.
