I guess no one out there knows what a Growler is for. It makes a certain kind of noise if armatures are shorted internally. I am sure better ways of checking are used now! Works good and great job by the way, for the restoration......
Thank you very much for this good information.Yes, this product is not a very well-known tool.When I first saw it, I didn't understand what it was.Now it works correctly and I feel lucky to have it.Thank you very much for watching the video. ❤️
Interesting refurbishing project. When you did the ohm test of the actual coil, I was surprised you didn't test the coil to the case/core to see if it was isolated from them. But I guess it wasn't because it worked. Always a good idea to test for that since it could still read through the coil and be shorted to the core and/or case. Thumbs Up!
@@brucet9799 At times they would turn the key and it only clicked (starters) then they would try again and it would catch and turn over. The growler would have lack of sound in portions of the rotation when testing.
An interesting device, however, its construction and design is much younger than the year 1920. And that braid bolted to the cabinet had a purpose. It was used to ground the metal packaging and thus to protect the operator from electric shock.
Possibly the device is to demagnetize the armature. If rotated slowly and removed slowly all the magnetization would be erased. - The DC resistance of any coil looks very low for something that will be plugged into the mains. Impedance is the term used for AC resistance. Most impedance testers are for audio or RF frequencies. I think that, if plugged into 120 volts, it drew a current of 2 amps, you could say the impedance is 60 ohms at 60 Hz
If it’s from the 1920’s Philips head screws wheren’t around so those screws where added much later. I thought they where an eyesore from the get go and was surprised to see you restore them. I think they should gave bern tossed and replaced with more appropriate ones. Apart from that, good job
Totally true.I have a drill restoration project on my bench.I was in a bit of a hurry.I wanted to fill rust pits with thick layer of paint.(I should put putty and smooth the surface.)❤️❤️❤️

Super jest to odrestaurowany do sprawdzania wirników Pozdrawiam serdecznie. 👍👍👍👍
Dobry pomysł. Cieszę się, że ci się podoba, kolego. Miło cię tu widzieć.❤️

You are totally right.When i see the values on my multimeter I thought it was ok.I forget to use a grounded cable. I will replace the cable. ❤️❤️
You need a high potential megohm meter (megger) to do that test properly. That puts a 1000V on the coil to ground.
Used to use these to test starters and generators working on older cars.
What indication would you get when the rotor was bad?

Very true. Thank you very much for the information.❤️
No matter if this thing has any purpose but please before using it the next time get a three wire cable and connect the housing to the PE.
Thanks for your comment.I can't believe I forgot to run a ground line.I will replace the cable. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@OldToolRestorationsThere should also be a grommet to keep the cord from being cut by the housing. One with strain relief, ideally.
Safety third!
Muito bom Brasil❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Envio meu grande amor ao Brasil.❤❤❤
It looks great and you did a wonderful job restoring it as well!!!!
I enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
I'm very glad you liked it. Thank you very much.❤️❤️

Thank you very much for this nice information.❤️
the hammered paint was perfect
I'm glad you liked it.❤️
Haven’t seen one of those in a while. It’s a small one though.
I had no idea what would happen when I restored it. When I saw it, I thought I had to buy it. I see I made the right decision.❤️
for testing Armature
👍👍 ❤️❤️

You've given me very good information. Thank you very much. I hope I will always continue to see you here.❤️
Nice😊
Thank you! Cheers! ❤️❤️❤️
I seen one of these in use back in the 1970s.
Yes, it has been used for years.❤
😀👆 nao sei que estrumento e esse ,e pra que serve 🤔👆 mas seja la o que for esta novo denovo 😀👍
Que bom que você gostou. Se ficar legal, não tem problema. 😀❤️
It was used to check A generator armature for short

Phillips screws were designed in Canada in 1937.

restaurado dispositivo 😉
😊 ❤️❤️❤️
ممكن شرح أكتر .كيف صنع وشكرن
سآخذ اقتراحك بعين الاعتبار، شكراً لك.❤️
Well, that was a waste of time.
I needed it for next my project.(I will repair a bosch drill). ❤️❤️
Painting could be better...
