This is a VERY hard to find original KW Model SA highbar belt-driven lighting generator for use with a hit and miss gas engine, prairie tractor, or other lighting application. It is in excellent condition with no cracks, breaks, or repairs other than a chip on the drive pulley which shouldn’t affect anything. Turns over nicely with very minimal noticeable wear in the bearings. It has excellent magnetic pull and lights up a test light very brightly. All of the mounting feet on the brass base are in excellent shape as can be seen. These original KW lighting generators are almost impossible to find in the wild or even at swap meets so if you’ve been looking for one for a lighting application here’s a very nice one. Let the pictures be your guide. I can deliver this for free (or a cold beverage) to Baraboo, WI, Portland, IN, or Coolspring, PA, later this year.

tritt
Comments Off
This is a very nice original Tritt Acme flywheel driven friction drive dynamo or generator for ignition on an old flywheel type gas engine. It is in excellent condition with no cracks, breaks, or repairs of any kind that I can see or know of. It turns nicely with minimal bearing wear and the governor operates as it should. It has mild wear to the friction wheel. It motors up when hooked to a battery so it should make current to run your engine. It is about 5 x 8 1/2 x 6 inches tall overall. It mounts with two slots 4 1/8 inches apart on center. It should be ready to put on your engine or on your display shelf with the rest or your hit and miss engine accessories. The pictures tell the story. You’ll like it. I can be reached at 262 573 193 1 if you’d like to talk about it.
