Thanks to you all for your response to my queries about the baler starter motor.
Hugh: The baler engine starter is in front of the flywheel which presents a similar problem to that which you experienced with the 1066 and the truck, and is why I want to reverse the direction of rotation.
To make things a bit clearer, I have three motors, one off the baler engine, one from a Super A and another of unknown origin but is similar to the S/A. The S/A motor does not have a threaded terminal post to attach a cable to, so cannot use it, whereas the baler motor does, and when mounted in position on the tractor the terminal is located near enough to where an original W4 starter would be. Also, the armature is as new with the varnish still on the rotor and barely a mark on the commutator. I have fitted the Bendix drive and pinion off the S/A so it is just a matter of changing the direction of rotation. I had hoped to do the conversion on the cheap by doing it myself, but if it comes to the crunch I guess I will have to take your advice and get an auto electrican to look at it.
An unanswered question in my last post: I am interested in as to why the baler engine starter has four field windings in it compared to the others which only have two. Any suggestions ?
