A Motor Is Better Than Muscles ...... With The RIGHT CRAFTSMAN MOTOR

Yesterday, every household, farm and production task had to be done the hard way - by physical labor. Jobs like heating and refrigeration, sharpening tools, carpet sweeping, loading a silo - even the simple necessity of drawing water - all required muscles . and lots of your own energy, to get them done.

Today, silent, efficient dependable electric motors do all these chores - and hundreds more. Motors are used for just about every kind of work: Garbage disposal, dishwashing, polishing - and heavy-duty labor and production jobs too numerous to mention. Count the electric motors serving you. You'll be surprised at the number.

As wonderfully designed and miracle-working as most motors are, there are limits to the size of load that each can carry - to the neglect and abuse that each can suffer without damage. You don't expect too much of your muscles. It's just as unreasonable to ask more of a motor than it is designed to give.

Before putting your new motor to work, do it and yourself - the favor of learning something about it. Read this booklet. It tells you how to judge whether or not you have the right motor for your job. It also tells you how to install and maintain your motor so that it will serve you faithfully and tirelessly.

SEARS MAKES Your Selection Of THE Motor Easy

BECAUSE Sears Motor Line for the Workshop. Home, Farm-for tools, appliances and machines - is complete . a better motor at the best price for each and every job.

Over 90% of the homes, offices, farms and small businesses (excluding only "heavy" and specialized industries) in the U.S. are furnished electrical nower that requires the use of one or another of the kinds of motors in Sears Motor

Line. Also, the great majority of jobs to be done in all these places need motors of the exact types and sizes available at Sears. For convenience. we divide these into four groups as shown at the bottom of this page. Un-

BECAUSE Sears Information and the Identification Data with each motor make it a quick and simple matter for you to select the exact right motor for your job.

less your job requires a "tailor-built" motor the chances are better than 9 to 1 that you will find the right motor in one of these four Sears classifications.

Because there are four different groups, with many sizes in each group.

your task of finding the right motor might still be difficult, except for the help Sears gives you. Sears Selection and Identification Data make your selection easy. This booklet will also help.

Commercial electricity is manufactured by Power Company generators and transported by wires in the form of current. There are different kinds. DC (direct current) electricity 'flows'' (like water in a pipe) always in one direction: AC (alternating current) electricity "flows" out then back in equal amounts. Both currents travel at 186,000 miles per sec. - but AC can be made to change its direction with different ranidity (frequency) If it changes 120 times per sec. (so that it makes 60 round trips - out, and back to generator - per sec.) we call it 60-cycle AC Also used are 25- and 50-cycle

In addition to different frequencies AC is

also supplied in different phases. Singlephase AC is one current occupying the wires by itself Polyphase AC is two or generators) flowing together in the same wires but with the periods of cycling staggered. For instance.3-phase ACconsists of three currents changing their directions at 1/3 intervals.

Every current requires a circuit, an unbroken "nath" from the generator to the device using the electricity, and back to the generator. This circuit is formed by conductors (usually wires) enclosed by non-conductors. The amount of current

DIRECT-CURRENT MOTORS

The earliest kind, DC motors are still used for some purposes,

In a simple, Series Wound DC motor, current "flows" through the

wires of a field (stationary part) then through wires on an arma-

which rub a commutator on the shaft. In "flowing" it makes the field and armature into magnets having north (N) poles and

boles (which attract each other) adjacent. However, each time

the armature rotates 180° the commutator reverses current

The above motor will vary in speed with variations in the voltage

are connected together, instead of in series with the field. When

the field is excited (current turned on), a current (and resulting

N and S poles) is created in the armature by an electrical process called induction . Therefore, the motor will run with-

WHY THERE ARE DIFFER ENT KINDS OF MOTORS

measured in amperes (A or amps) like water is measured in gallons. The force that "pushes" the current is measured in volts (V) like water pressure is measured in lbs/sq-in, When a current of 1A is of work designated as 1 Watt (W) will be done. Power companies sell electricity to 1 000 watts of work in an hour

Power companies supply current at certain standardized voltages. However the wires offer a resistance to current flow which to distance. Despite the use of devices

there usually is a voltage drop at the point where a current is put to work. Hence, rectly stated as 115V (approx) 230V (approx.) and 440V (approx.)

Generally, a 2-wire service (into a building) indicates 115V, 60-cycles, singlephase AC: 3 wires can be 230V ditto (especially in a city) which can be split to make two 115V circuits . or it can be 3-phase, 60-cycle AC at 230V or 440V (especially in rural areas). There are, of course, exceptions. Over 90% of the service to U.S. homes, offices, farms and small businesses is single-phase, 60cycle AC, either at 115V or 230V.

EACH TYPE OF MOTOR IS DESIGNED FOR A PURPOSE

of copper bars embedded in a soft iron core, or are diecast

The induction motor has big advantages over other types: It will run practically without loss of speed due to current or load it is not self-starting, so various starting devices are used:

A SPLIT-PHASE motor is an induction motor with a starting winding added to the stator, and arranged to be cut out by a centrifugal switch after the motor is started. For easy-to-start loads where high starting current is not a problem.

A CAPACITOR motor is a Split-Phase motor with a condenser AC SPLIT-PHASE INDUCTION TYPE added to reduce the starting current required and increase the starting torque (power). For hard-to-start applications requiring

A SHADED-POLE motor is a variation of the Split-Phase motor. without means of cutting out the starting device. It has less starting power and is less efficient in operation

A PEPHILSION-INDUCTION motor is a Repulsion motor with a A REPULSION-INDUCTION motor is a Repulsion motor with a centrifugal switch to cut out the brushes after starting. In some trues the brushes are also lifted off the commutator. This motor

POLYPHASE (3-PHASE) AC MOTORS

A 3-PHASE motor is "strictly" an Induction type. It uses 3-phase induction motors consolidated into one - with the added advantage other two are not at their "peak pull" positions. It has a very powerful start, and a great overload capacity.

UNIVERSAL MOTORS

These are really Series-Wound AC motors designed to perform well on both single-phase AC and DC. Because they will develop destructively high speeds under no load, they are usually used

All General-Purpose Split-Phase and Capacitor Motors (Pages 8-9) HAVE THESE SEARS FEATURES

LIFETIME LURRICATION

bearings sealed in with a special formula, top-quality grease that assures long, trouble-free service.

The 2-pole sleeve-bearing motors are fitted with 100% felt wicking that holds a large reserve of oil in suspension and distributes oil over bearing surface. Oil slingers on shaft prevent leakage.

Both above types require no lubrication throughout normal motor life.

LEAK-PROOF OILER

General-purpose sleeve-bearing motors have a new type oil-cup plug securely fitted into the end shield to provide constant pressure between the felt wick and motor shaft. Plug is self-sealing, leakproof; the improved wick and packing assure ample oil storage and uniform

EXTRA COOL OPERATION

"booster" fan with baffles (2-pole models), or two fans - one at each end (all other models) provide positive motor cooling. The resulting uniform, top-efficient cooling helps prevent motor burnout.

TOUGH MYLAR INSULATION

Has 35 times greater moisture resistance and 8 times greater physical strength than ordinary insulation . gives maximum protection.

DEPENDABLE STARTING

Improved type centrifugal governors assure "sure-fire" starts - every time and longer trouble-free life.

NEMA-TYPE RASES

All motors have NEMA standard mounting bases ... which assures easy, simple application on any equipment manufactured with provisions for NEMA-type mounting.

PERFORMANCE TESTED

Each motor is individually tested before it is packed to ensure maximum performance and quality. Each design of motor is built to perform at the very top of its NEMA band rating ... thus ensuring full rated HP and nerformance.

ANY POSITION OPERATION

New, improved oil retention designs of all sleeve-bearing motors now makes it unnecessary to mount such motors upright. With this new feature all Sears motors (sleeve as well as ball bearing) can be mounted in any position . with shaft up, down, or at any angle!

RUILT-IN GROUND LUG & CONDUIT CONNECTION

These make it easy to make permanent ground connection and/or conduit line connections.

LIGHT-WEIGHT, HEAVY-DUTY CONSTRUCTION

Streamline designs reduce weight up to 30% . but increase ruggedness and service life of motors. 2-pole models have fully guarded, strong die-cast shells. Other models have new full-size, straight shafts that provide larger bearing surfaces ..., also, improved rotor design that eliminates all electrical noises.

CUSTOM ENGINEERED

Each motor is custom designed for a specific line of applications. No compromises are necessary with this line. There is a motor designed for every job

DUST-PROOF SWITCH

Sawdust lint and other foreign matter cannot cause motor failpoints are permanently shielded and protected. This important feature gives Sears fractional hp motors a marked superiority for many tool appliance and blower applications.

OUICK-CONNECT TERMINALS

Simplified, readily accessible terminal board with plug-in. quick-connect wiring tabs cut wiring time in half. These make it easy to reverse rotation or to change for voltage on models designed for 115/230V.

HORSEPOWER (HP)

Consider the electrical and physical characteristics required, and out. A gasoline engine can be replaced by an AC motor of 75% the

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS

These will usually be found on the motor nameplate.

If you push a car from a standing start on a level road, it takes an extra effort to start the car, then a smaller (but steady) effort to keep it rolling with occasional spurts of extra effort (again) as the car rolls over bumps. It's the same with a motor attached to a load. Therefore a motor is said to be capable of so much starting torque (push), so much running torque and so much overload torque. Breakdown torque (its maximum push, beyond which it stalls) is also used.

Motor torque is measured by horsepower. The rated HP of a motor is its running torque. at normal running speed. That is, a motor rated at 2 HP can pull with the strength of two horses — for all of its life. At starting, or when required to give an extra spurt of effort, it is said to be overloaded - and the safe overload capacity of a motor is usually stated as so many (sav 2 or 5) times the rated HP. But this overload capacity is only a temporary one because a motor heats up rapidly, and may burn out, if overloaded

It is very important to most motors whether you connect them to DC or AC, whether AC is single-, 2- or 3-phase — and whether the voltage is 115 or some

other amount. Each is generally designed to run on a certain current with volt-

age of approximately a certain amount. Actually, there is a loss of voltage in power lines and Power Companies cannot always deliver exact voltages.

Therefore, most motors are made to allow 10% voltage variation without

harm: but the voltage should not be allowed to drop more than this (ex-

Feeding" a motor a wrong current or wrong voltage will, at best, reduce its

efficiency and life — at worst, can burn it up. It is particularly dangerous to

Just as you need a certain amount of food to keep going, so a motor needs

a continuous supply of amps. And like you, when it works hardest, it needs

cept that R-I and 3-Phase Motors can stand greater drops).

TYPE OF CURRENT

AMPS - STARTING AND RUNNING at starting (or for temporary overloads), and so many (generally only 1/3 to 1/4 of the starting amps) for normal running.

RPM AND DIRECTION OF ROTATION

If you connect to the right power supply you needn't worry about having enough amps; but you do have to think about the size wires you use between the power source and your motor (wires that are too small can't carry enough amps). When choosing these wires, be sure to have them big enough to carry the starting amps, not just the running amps.

Induction-type motors run at practically constant speed (unless so overloaded as to stall) - and each is therefore rated according to the rpm (revolutions per minute) which its shaft will turn. The two commonest are approx. 1725 and 3450 rpm. You can, of course, obtain higher or lower speeds at the equipment by using various pulley sizes or gears; but it is often inconvenient to change an arrangement already planned for you by the manufacturer. Therefore, it's best to get a motor with the recommended rpm.

For the same reason, you can avoid trouble by getting a motor that revolves in the right direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) However this is not too important with Sears motors as all can easily be reversed.

Though seldom indicated on a nameplate, you may have heard these terms. They refer to the "heating characteristics" of a motor. Every motor heats up as it runs (temberature rise). This rise is not critical unless a motor is overloaded too long - in which case it may overheat and burn out. Special purpose motors are sometimes built to run a while, then stop and cool a while - in which case running time is stated.

IF SPECIAL SELECTION BECOMES NECESSARY

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The physical characteristics of a motor (its size, shape, etc.) can be just as important as its electrical characteristics, if it must fit a certain space or drive a specifically designed piece of equipment. Some of a motor's physical characteristics are listed in catalog specifications - others must be observed by looking at the motor, and perhaps by taking measurements.

SITE AND SHAPE

Obviously, if you have limited space in which to install your motor, size and shape are very important. Not only must you consider whether or not the motor will fit in - it's also important for it to have room to "breathe". All motors require a free circulation of air, to keep from overheating. Don't squeeze one into a space so tight that it will "suffocate" in its own heat!

TYPE AND SIZE OF BASE

Different motors are provided with different types of mounting arrangements. Usually, you can adapt a motor to most any special mounting requirement (if there's room); but much time and trouble can be saved by getting a motor that will mount where you want it without alteration.

HEIGHT OF SHAFT

When considering the type of base, consider also the height at which the shaft sets above the base. If it is too high, you may have difficulty locating the motor so that it can be connected to your equipment.

KIND OF SHAFT END

Motor shafts come in different sizes (1/2 in., 5/8 in., etc.) - and are of different types. For securing a pulley or tool to be driven by the motor, a shaft is generally slotted - for a key - or flattened (beveled) for use with set screws. Special shafts have detents (depressions for set screws), threads. holes (for pins), etc. If you don't have the right shaft, it's difficult to connect a motor to its load.

Some motors have a shaft at each end (instead of just one end) - which may be quite an advantage for certain purposes.

TYPE OF REARINGS

Generally, there are two types of bearings: Ball and Sleeve. The ball bearings will "take" greater thrust loads and abuse, will run quieter and longer ... are usually sealed in grease so that no lubrication is required. Ordinary sleeve bearings restrict a motor to one "upright" ever, Sears improved sleeve bearings receive oil and allow the motor

THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTOR

When a motor becomes overloaded, it meets the increased demand for power by drawing a higher amperage. This can go on until it is overloaded to the point or stalling — and it will then draw an excessive amperage, so much (in fact) that either the motor or the wires to it will burn up if this condition is by "blowing" to open the circuit.

Some motors, however, have a built-in thermal overload protector, which acts like a fuse to open the circuit, but is more convenient. Two kinds are used: 1) Automatic Reset (which closes the circuit again when motor has cooled sufficiently); and 2) Manual Reset (which can be closed by hand when the motor is cool enough).

SPECIAL HOUSINGS

The average motor housing is built to provide good protection for the motor (from dust and dirt) under normal conditions of motor operation around a home, office or plant. However, special conditions must sometimes be met - as when a motor must run in the presence of explosive fumes (around a gasoline depot). Housings designed for every conceivable special condition are available - but, remember, you must order them specifically.

HOW TO INSTALL YOUR MOTOR

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

USE LARGE ENOUGH WIRE, SWITCHES, ETC.

Importance of "Safe" Size

All wires and electrical devices (switches, receptacles, etc.) are designed to carry up to a specified load (no. of amps). Overloads may: 1) Cause wires or devices to burn out — with danger of fire; 2) Cause excessive voltage drop (loss of voltage at motor) so that motor runs inefficiently, overheats, and could burn out. Voltage drop should be held to 5% max. for R-1 and 3-Phase motors; to 2% max. for all other motors.

Figuring Loads

For a motor, use the "Amps" shown on nameplate —and add 30% for safety. Other appliances are usually rated in watts . Amps = watts (i.e.: a 60

watt bulb on a 115V circuit = \frac{60}{115} = 0.5 +amps).

Selecting Devices and Wires

Devices are labeled in amps. Wires are rated by diameters with AWG (Am. Wire Gage) Nos.; by type (of covering); and by length. A wire may be just right to carry a certain load for (say) 50 ft; but not to carry it 100 ft. Reason: the longer a wire is the greater the voltage drop at its end.

Ratings in table are for 50 ft lengths of 2-wire cable or extension cord — or 100 ft of single wire. Increase wire by one size for each added 50 (or 100) ft, or fraction thereof. Never use smaller than 14 wire — or ordinary extension cord — for permanent wiring.

USE A SMALL ENOUGH FUSE

Every motor deserves the protection of an individual fuse or circuit breaker designed to "blow" before motor can be damaged. Because the starting amps required are much greater than the normal running amps , a standard fuse big enough not to blow every time motor starts is much too big to protect motor against burn out from continuous overloading. Therefore, only a Time-Lag type of fuse will protect your motor. Use one rated the same as the "Amps" on motor nameplate, plus not more than 25%. On 115/230V circuits, use 2 fuses: use 3 on a 3-phase circuit.

FUSES ARE CHEAPER THAN MOTORSI

MAKING CONNECTIONS AT MOTOR

Your Sears motor will have a cord and plug, or a conduit box with colored wire leads inside it. If there are leads, splice them to the circuit wires according to wiring diagram on motor.

CONNECTING TO AN EXISTING CIRCUIT

Before plugging-in or splicing a motor branch circuit to an existing circuit, check the wire (etc.) sizes — and check the load already on the circuit.

1. Some appliances will be OFF while others are ON. Just total the amps for those which could be ON simultaneously.

2. A 1/4 or 1/3 HP motor can generally be added to an average household circuit without overloading it — and a 1/2 or 3/4 HP motor probably can

if there are no other motors or heating appliances on the circuit. Larger motors usually require a separate circuit.

3. Open the circuit by removing the fuse (or uses) which controls it.

4. If circuit has a standard fuse(s), substitute Time-Lag fuse(s), or install one in the separate line to motor — unless motor has built-in overload protection.

PROVIDING A NEW BRANCH CIRCUIT

A new branch circuit is one starting at your entrance switch — and may be installed if switch has provision for an additional circuit. Just remember:

1. If spare terminals are exposed and you can connect to entrance switch without disassembling it, simply open the switch to simultaneously shut off all house current. If you must disassemble switch or touch any wire leading into it, first have Power Co. shut off your service.

3. If lines entering original switch are large enough (Power Co. will advise), vou can connect new switch to these lines inside the original switch, as shown. Otherwise, you must provide new leadin wiring to a Service Entrance Head (or Yardpole, on a farm). Complete instructions are given in Sears' booklet "Electric Wiring for Home or Farm" on sale in our Elect. Appliances Dept. for a small sum.

1 230V CIRCUIT

GROUND

Never work with existing wires or equipment without first making certain power is OFF. Check local codes before buying wire or equip-

ment - or doing any wiring.

Avoid long extension cords - they are subject to damage.

For wiring in barns (where dampness and manure fumes rapidly deteriorate ordinary wires and metal) we recommend use of our Single Wire

Trench Cable with Knob and Tube installation together with Bakelite Surface Wiring Devices. Open wiring permits frequent inspection.

Never install devices where someone must stand in dampness or close to machinery to operate them.

In stringing long wires remember to support weight of wire properly - and allow slack to take up the contraction of wire in cold weather.

PHYSICAL MOUNTING REQUIREMENTS

PRE-MOUNTING CHECK

To check against shipping damage, rotate the shaft with your fingers — it should turn freely. Now operate the motor without load — it should run smoothly with a low electrical hum.

SELECTING LOCATION

Locate motor where it will be as dry and cool as possible. Do not expose it to weather, nor enclose it so that it doesn't get free air circulation. (Wire screens around a motor may become clogged and shut off circulation). Also, don't install it where possible sparks could ignite grain dust or similar inflammables — unless it is a special enclosed type.

MOUNTING

Bronze bearing motors should be mounted horizontally — to prevent the oil from draining out of the oil cups. Ball bearing motors may be mounted in any position.

If quiet operation is desired, motor may be mounted on rubber or spring cushions — but this will cause it to "float" and is not advisable when exact shaft alignment is required.

There are two methods of maintaining belt tension. 1) Use the motor base slots, and slide the motor to tighten the belt. 2) Use a motor rail as illustrated. In either case, make the retaining bolts secure.

MEASURING FOR V-BELTS

You can measure with string or tape around the outside edges (not in the grooves) of the motor pulley and driven pulley — to obtain belt length. Length can also be figured as shown in accompanying illustration.

A belt should be just tight enough so that finger pressure midway between pulleys will deflect it about 1/4 inch. If too loose, slippage of the pulleys will wear it out. If too tight, it increases motor load and wear on the bearings.

SELECTING PULLEYS

V-pulleys are measured from edge to edge (not in groove). The following table gives you the speeds of driven pulleys when using various combinations of drive and driven pulley sizes (in inches).

PRECAUTIONS THAT WILL SAVE YOUR MOTOR

DON'T OVERLOAD MOTOR

Overloading a motor can burn it out. Don't expect it to run continuously overloaded.

DON'T LET VOLTAGE DROP

When voltage at motor drops, exactly the same thing happens as when the motor is overloaded. With too little "fuel" it is (in effect) overworked — heats up — and will burn out. Use ample size wiring.

DON'T "SUFFOCATE" MOTOR

If free circulation of air to a motor is restricted (by dirt, rags or paper, or closing it up in a box) it overheats — may burn out. Keep motor clean, and dry,

If used where wood chips, dust, etc. can enter inside, blow out the interior with dry compressed air — or use a vacuum cleaner.

GROUND MOTOR PROPERLY

The motor frame should be connected, by wire of same size used in line to motor, to a suitable ground (water pipes or a grounding rod properly installed) — both to protect you, and to protect the motor in case of an internal short circuit.

LUBRICATE MOTOR PROPERLY

Motors with bronze bearings do require occasional - but not too frequent or excessive - lubrication. It's best to check yearly and add a few drops each time. Too much oil can cause trouble by getting out of the bearing into the motor.

USE RE-SET PROPERLY

If you have an overload protector with a manual reset button, always wait for motor to cool before using the re-set. Never hammer the re-set (if it seems to "stick"), as this will break off the switch parts. Any trouble with re-setting will probably be due to dust between the contacts — and blowing away the dust, or simply holding the button in firmly, will correct this.

be assured of matched belts use the matching code numbers printed on belts. Any two adjacent numbers (such as 19-20 or 20-21, etc.) constitute matched belts. This perfect matching is another Craftsman-like quality feature.

Craftsman belts are also the finest for wearability . they are pre-stretched to fit firmly down in pulley grooves, are water-, heat- and oil-resistant.

PRECISION-MACHINED CRAFTSMAN V-PULLEYS

All Craftsman V-Pulleys are scientifically designed and perfectly balanced, with machined (not simply cast-in) grooves so that belts will grip properly and run truer. This guarantees steady, efficient (no slippage) power transmission, and long-

A TYPICAL MAGNETIC STARTER WITH ON-OFF CONTROL MOUNTED ON THE COVER

AVAILABLE - COMBINED WITH ON-OFF CONTROL - ON ORDER, FOR ANY FARM OR INDUSTRIAL MOTOR

A Magnetic Motor Starter provides safety . for equipment and individuals. First. it will guard you against the hazard of having machinery stop (when power fails). then unexpectedly start up again (when power is restored) to catch you unaware. Second, it will protect your machinery against possible damaging effects of such an unexpected stop and restart. Third, it will protect your motor - by shutting it off instead of letting it run too hot - should line voltage drop too low, or should something happen to overload or stall the motor when no one is around to notice it. And don't forget that a hot-running or stalled motor - with power still on - can become a fire hazard. With Sears Magnetic Starter in the line. power failure, low voltage or an overload condition shuts the motor off ... until you' restart it by manually operating the overload protector in the starter.

The (included, but separate) On-Off Control also has many advantages.

You can use it on the motor, for on-the-spot control . or, if motor is inconveniently situated, can position it elsewhere, at a convenient control location. Having such a separate control for each motor makes it unnecessary to pull a master switch (or disconnect the motor) to shut down just one machine. Moreover, separate Magnetic Starter and On-Off Control units on individual motors can be wired so that manual starting of the motors 'must be done in a given sequence, when this is desirable.

REA is especially desirous that all users equip motors with magnetic starters ... for the safety reasons given above.

TYPICAL USEFUL HOOK-UPS

WHY SEARS MOTOR LINE IS COMPLETE FOR OVER 90% OF AVERAGE NEEDS

As told on pages 4-5 there are two major types of current (AC and DC) and many variations of each type . each requiring a different motor design. However, over 90% of the homes, offices, farms and small businesses in the U.S. are serviced with just one type of current, 115/230V, singlephase, 60-cycle AC.

Sears Motor Line includes all the various kinds of motors designed to

run on this one type of current and to do all the many different kinds of work that motors do. Included are motors for hard-starting tools and appliances, medium-starting tools and appliances, appliances requiring special motors, for heavy-duty industrial use, and for economical operation of very heavy farm and industrial equipment. Sizes range from 1/4 hp to 1 hp in the popular types... and up to 75 hp in the "heavy-work" types.

MOTOR IDENTIFICATION DATA IS AN ADDED SAFEGUARD

Every Sears motor is properly and clearly identified by a nameplate giving the motor model number and all the pertinent electrical data relating to the specific motor. Instructions packaged with each motor further identify it . and give all necessary information for wiring to the motor, mounting, maintenance, etc.

In addition, every Sears motor, except only the larger farm and in-

dustrial motors, is packaged in its own individual carrying carton, for your convenience, as illustrated here.

Contained in each carton there is a piece of literature on which are listed the various uses for which the motor is recommended. An identification tag attached to the motor lists the features which adapt it for these end uses; and the nameplate data is repeated on the end of the carton. You can't go wrong!

SPECIFIC MOTOR APPLICATIONS

POWER TOOLS

Any power tool will perform better when ample horsepower is applied. Ample hp means sufficient starting torque and overload torque, as well as ample running torque. Insufficient hp usually results in rougher, poorer quality work (from slowing of overloaded motor) . and probable damage to the motor. Better have an excess of power, especially for those intermittent (but demanding) overload periods (as when a saw blade encounters a tough knot) than to have too little.

Remember that, even though a Split-Phase motor may have sufficient power for normal operations, a Capacitor motor of same size will provide the extra power needed for occasional tough starts or overloads. Also keep in mind that the totally-enclosed Capacitor motor is the most dependable for any application requiring continuous duty or operation under adverse conditions of dust, etc. Because a tool may be operated under many dif-

ferent conditions ranging from occasional, light usage to continuous, heavy usage in severe conditions, our motor recommendations in the following lists also range from the smallest, lightest-duty motor that can be used up to the best. Within this range, select for your own purpose the right motor for the kind of usage you expect to give it.

Following, there are two lists of tools separated according to rpm of motor needed. Each list is preceded by a list of motors arranged by sizes (hp) and giving the Catalog Nos., motor type, type of bearings, and other pertinent data. Also included opposite each motor is the number of the page where this type of motor is illustrated and more fully described. Note that a reference to "Type A (page 8)" means a totally-enclosed Capacitor motor; and that "Type B (page 8)" is an open-ventilated Capacitor motor (with either sleeve or the more rugged ball bearings, as shown in list).

Motor selection is explained for each type of equipment. Wherever there is a choice among two or more motors of the same hp, our recommendations are listed motor last. In such case, a "better" motor may be one having a greater starting and/or overload capacity (usually, with lower starting amps. requirement) . or may be a 3-phase motor for use where power supply will accomodate this even greater capacity and more econom-ical-running type. Wherever there is a choice between an open-ventilated motor and a totally-enclosed, fan-cooled type, the latter type is also shown last (as being a "better" selection for use under adverse weather conditions).

PUMPS, WATER - V-BELT DRIVEN

Each model pump is designed to be driven at a certain rpm by a recommended hp motor . or at several different roms with a motor of recommended hp for each speed. When driven as specified, a pump will produce tabulated results. In the case of Centrifugal Pumps, these results are tabulated in terms of gals, per min (GPM) under certain head pressures (FT, of HEAD). For Shallow Well Piston Pumps the results are stated simply in gals, per hr. (GPH). Use the same hp motor (and pulley sizes) as the original, or as recommended by manufacturer.
