I'm currently working and restoring a Dozer Arcade game from the early 70's. I have determined that 1 of the 2 Rowe 650 Series motors that drive the left and right tracks of the bulldozer is bad. I have taken it apart, cleaned, and re-lubricated it andthe brushes look fine. It is free spinning but It barely will run. There is a little slop in the top bearing compared to the good one. I swapped the motors from side to side and the problem follows the bad motor. It's as if the motor is drawing the 24
I searched for the motor for Americoin Dozer Arcade Game. The search came up with John's Jukes in Canada. He has a new motor for $175 plus international shipping. I'd be happy to find a working used one. It's my understanding that the Rowe 650 motorswere used in other games and vending equipment? Does anyone have any repair Ideas or suggestions of where to look?
Hi John,
Thanks for the information. I may need to get in touch with you on this. I haven't gotten back to work with it because of other pressing issues around here but as you know I put a post out there to see what I could find.
I know the the worm gear bushing on this is worn. The other motor seems fine. I haven't taken that one apart as of yet to clean up. Is there a source for new brushes and the bushings? Let me know if you can.
Thank you so much,
Tim Nabours
