Don't know if these help at all, posted on February 11, 2015 at 18:21:34
David Smith	Tough to take pictures holding it up with one hand. If there's a specific connection that you would like to see more clearly let me know. Dave

David Smith	My RD is a project in waiting. At some point I'll disassemble it, refinish the chassis and build a plinth for it. A few other things closer to the front burner at the moment though. Dave

David Smith	Hmm, good to know about the Gates. The wiring diagram does not seem to match what I have exactly but I'll have a closer look at it. I don't see a manual or schematic for the B12H at VE, I have a manual but it doesn't include wiring diagram. I'll have a closer look at the Gates though. Dave

I'll check things out anyway , and will upload a decent wiring diagram to use with the ROK decks for the sake of helping out others in the future . Thanks , Paul

David Smith	Gee, I wonder if that's a leaky cap...I'll have to deal with that one. Dave

Thanks a lot so far guys ! The thing is that I completely dissassembled my B12H and lost the wiring diagram I had drawn at that periode ( years ago ) . stupid me ;)

Thanks for the large shots !! I'll puzzle with it , and see if I can get
it to spin again .

O sure .. that's exactly the same 2uF oil can as came with mine .. leaking as well . that one can be swapped with a modern MKP I guess .

Thanks again !! will report later

Paul

David Smith	Cool, if those can get you started, let me know anything that's not clear and I'll check it. Dave

I can take pictures, posted on February 11, 2015 at 17:50:33
David Smith	Are you wanting to check something or starting from scratch? Dave

It has a Pabst outer rotor hysteresis motor. If you shoot a picture of the motor I may be able to tell if it is similar. Phil
