You might check in the library section under SAMSON or STOVER to see what kind of pictures are there to understand the mechanism. There were 3 or 4 different ways they had hardware hookups, but only one cable or wire going up to tie to it.
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number.

They have a show there in Sept. I'm planning a trip to Oregon then and my plans are to go if they are able to have it.

Will if you don't have it by Sept maybe I can take a picture for you. I'm planning on going by and looking even if they can't have the show. I want to explore the SE part of Washington while out there. I love to drive through the wheat fields. Been in the area once.

Ok thanks I’ll let you know. I’m heading the Seattle in June. But I’m not sure if I’ll have the time to make it out there.
Thanks,

Possibly the Eastern Washington Agricultural Museum (EWAM).
