  • Notes
  • Silvertone 1955 Early and Late: Rider's Sears page 7-13 shows the same schematic and on 7-14 alignment for models 1905, 1915, 1955 and 1965 for "Early and Late". We show also the 17 Sears original technical pages where can be found the schematic for "Original" and "Revised". That may be the difference - and: "Earlier production uses glass and the intermediate or "G" type of tube, later production uses some metal or MG tubes."
    Page 7-12 shows details of the "Dual condenser drive shaft" for the models named, plus 1917, 1967, 1967A, 1918, 1968, 1918A, 1968A, 1936, 1996 and drive data for models 1945 and 1946.
