Thanks greasemonkey44, I ordered the oil

Can't get dam% pictures to work. They always change things,.

Porter Cable PAS1 air compressor oil OK?

Pics didn't work

Millers Falls Co, Greenfield, MASS Motor is a Westinghouse 1,725 RPM Pictures following, note that the cap for one oil well is missing.

Thank you. Oil cups. The arbor spins fast. The unit is at least 35 years old, could be 70. The belt consists of small three inch pieces "riveted together. Would Quaker state motor oil be a correct choice?

Great news thank you. I screwed on the three buffer wheels and did some testing. They seem to stay on. Another question: I have two oil/grease ports. Tapered at the bottom. Should I add grease or something else?

Hi everyone, I have a very old grinder/buffer. The buffer goes on a tapered threaded bolt. No nut is in place so the buffer always comes off. What kind of nut do I need? Thanks in advance

Got it. I missed a step and now it works as it should.

Hi everyone, I have the same trouble with my Aprilaire 60 humidistat that I just installed for my Aprilaire 560 unit. Furnance is a Lennox gas forced hot air. I get the same r1 in test mode. Solenoid does not open. I did the ohm test for the outside temp wires and the value agreed to the...

All done with the retrofit I guess you call it. Not original, not pretty, but it will work great!!!!! Thanks again for the knowledge shared. I learned a few things. Here is a picture, I hope.....

Thanks Outlawmws and Provincial. I'll work with what I have, use your suggestions and see if it works. This weekend.

Update. Found a site where I can get 4" of steel. If my screw has a 3/16" taper how thick a piece of steel should I get. And hot or cold rolled? Thanks I ask allot of questions, I get the right outcome.

I got my screws today. My steel is 3/16" thick. The tapered angle on the screw is also about 3/16". I guess I need thicker steel. Think I can maybe put two 3/16" pieces together and screw through both?

Update, I ordered the screws and the coupling nut. Should arrive in a few days and I can get the project completed. I'll send a pic once done. Thanks to everyone, very much. Vice means allot to me.
