A box full of metal and wood parts was brought to me... It was an old European gramophone (Pathéphone)...
The motor was broken, bottom spring was broken loose from the drum, and the crank shaft was broken...
Both fixed now...
The crank broke because it wasn't properly aligned, clearly the motor had been replaced at one time, and was positioned too high in the soundbox. (too close to the deck-bottom).
I tried to find more info on the manufacturer (J.S,A.), but couldn't find any reference, any body ever seen a motor from this manufacturer?
Swiss Motor
