Does anyone here know what the Ford Service Station Starter/Generator test stand is?
I am looking for a manual for it. Will post a picture tomorrow. Thanks, Dan.

Dan,
Do you need the manual for the tester pictured?
I have a 3 manuals for this tester and I would be glad to copy it for you.
It will take a day or two. There’s several pages.
Let me know.

One manual won’t post.
This is a Fairbanks Morse unit.
Here’s a photo of one at a Ford Factory in use setting up starters and generators.
If you look at the left side of the photo you will see the first version of this tester with a wood legged base.
Ford used these in the factory.

I think there is was something in the Service Bulletin about these for dealers. Thanks Dan

Yes, they are shown in the service bulletins for December 1st of 1919.
I’ll work on the scan tomorrow.
