1963 C3 conversion.


this organ was imported to switzerland and i guess converted DIY. i dont think this was an original conversion.
i used the organ with this gear for about 2 years.
to start the organ there was kind of booster switch which gave about 15% more voltage to the motors...
due of that, oil and bad insulation both motors burned out..and when i  wanted to use the organ just smoke came out of the case....
so i bought on ebay a starter/run motor set a frequency converter and built the c3 back to its origonal state...

also with the gear conversion there was a lot of additional noise.

here some pictures of the gear conversion. i dont have original pictures how it was built in..so i grabbed the parts and too some pictures of the stuff thats left...

the gears have 24 / 20 teeth.

they moved the run motor away and inserted this cheap mechanics with the 24 tooth gear.
