What is the best way to maintain a Jaeger 1224 motor, apart from spraying

the inside with WD40?
 
don't you have to put grease over the moving parts as that's what i have done

you've not worn it out already ?
 
Yes suppose grease is also good.:)
 
as there was a very small bit of grease on the cogs or what i thought was grease as china could used anything lol

so just put a load more on.

shame they aren't going to make any more of them.
 
Thats why I want to look after my 1224:)

Its a great bit of kit;)

Wish I had bought the reinforced model now.

cant you mod yours with the metal plate from the pics on that sat shop ?
 
Cover the outside of the box containing the internals with a rainguard.

Don't overload the gearbox with a dish that is not designed correctly.

In some installations I have added a counterweight that sits behind the dish, so the polar bearings are not worn on one side.
