Upon further examination I conclude that the bearings in the motor have
given up. No pulse. What a start or non start to the new year! Grrrr.
Anyway I can use my old wobbly wheel some and handbuild some hump trays off
the slab roller until the patient has recovered.
Plan B.

Dale,
Bearings on these motors are easy and cheap
to replace. If you are not comfortable doing
so, take it to an electric motor shop. It will
cost very little when compared to a new
motor.
