Comments:

This motor was made by the Diehl Manufacturing Co.
I currently have 2 of these motors. I do not recall where this specific motor came from. The other motor was attached to a 40s 8" TS. The pecker head has been modified to a low profile.
A 1936 Craftsman catalog shows Cat. No. 99PM 5623-D motor costing 22.50 and shipping weighing 66#.

This motor runs well.
