Early style Victor governor weights question

Post by oliver »

Hi All,

I have an incomplete Victor II motor that's missing one of the early style governor weights (slightly smaller than later Victrola weights and recessed where the spring blade goes).
Since I haven't been able to find an early style weight, I was wondering if a complete later style weight assembly would work on the original Victor II governor shaft (?).

Has anyone on this forum done that? Your insights and recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Oliver

You can probably get the correct weight from George Vollema. Contact him at victrola@triton.net
