Has anyone replaced their original stir motor with the Emerson motor that is recommended on the forum. Interested to see how it worked and how the worm gear fits on the Emerson shaft.

The shaft diameter is too large. The shaft would need to be turned down to allow the gear on the shaft. Otherwise, it should be a good fit.

I can't find that motor any longer. Does anyone know of a source or a different number that will work for the stir motor ??

Someone . . . . anyone ?? Just not keen on having to send the original off and pay $250 to get it rebuilt.

The 42 Frame is rarely used today. Thus the problem finding a new replacement motor. The other possibility is to find a salvaged motor. Manley used this motor for decades. So a motor off of many of the Manley models will work.

Found this on eBay. I think might work. Looks a little rough. Double-check with seller: http://www.ebay.com/itm/EMERSON-ELECTRI ... SwoudW73TB

Thanks Ross.

As a caution, before buying a used motor or one specifically removed from an old Manley machine, have the seller plug the motor into an outlet and let it run for 6-7 minutes. It won't hurt a continuous run motor but will tell you if the windings overheat and smoke. In this condition, the overload device turns on, the motor stops running needs a cool down and resets. That is not what you want.
