Hi Leslie and Chris. I haven’t made the progress I intended on the Kennedy hacksaw restoration. Partly because I hit some snags but I have also been diverted to help my son restore his new flat. However your requests will encourage me to get it finished and take photos.
Leslie - I renovated the Hoover motor first and didn’t take any photos while it was apart. If you have any specific questions I will try to answer them. One thing to note is that there are only three wires in total emerging from the start and run windings. One end of each winding is commoned within the windings and that wire goes to the neutral terminal. The other end of the run winding goes to line terminal and the other end of the start winding goes to line via the centrifugal switch. It’s therefore not possible to reverse this motor – not that you would want to anyway in this hacksaw application.
I'll open a new thread on the issue I had with the main bronze bearing.
