October 20, 20214 yr Recently I have came across this buffalo silent blower, it's in good condition, only detail is the makeshift handle, does anybody have information regarding the original handle,(measurements,if a counterweight is needed etc )
October 20, 20214 yr Gearbox Looks like a Buffalo 200 silent to me, I did an online image search and tons of them showed up with different size impeller housings an different mounting options,
October 20, 20214 yr looks like Not all of them have the counterweight, If you the advertisement you posted it shows one without it but the last one I posted shows one on there, But now that you know the model number you can look it up online and just pick a handle design you like and copy it,
October 20, 20214 yr Of course the Advertisements were not always accurate too. It was expensive to create them and things got reused and transposed and inaccuracies ignored. We're used to pictures that show what is there not drawings that go through another person's (at least) interpretation before we see them.
October 20, 20214 yr That makes sense Thomas, I will say that my online image search showed actual photos of them with an without the counter weight too, but I guess someone could have removed them sometime in the past,
October 20, 20214 yr Ive got a couple blowers that are just crank handles but all my blowers that have a handle running all the way through the mount are oval shaped
October 20, 20214 yr I don't recall any of mine having both an oval and a round hole in them---perhaps a retrofit?
October 20, 20214 yr I agree Thomas, I’ve never seen a blower of any manufacture or model with two holes in the mount let alone a round one for that matter, All the Buffalo 200 silent blowers I saw had oval shaped handles running through the mounts
