Older Fluff'r Blower

[RSL Cattle Co.]

Would anyone have information on the Fluff'r blowers produced by Gardner Mfg. Co.?
Also if a Sullivan's or Circuiter blower motor would fit?

Most of the metal case blowers use the same motors. They mount inside the case with a piece of weather strip around the motor between it and the case. It needs to seal there or the air is pulled around the motor instead of thru it, reducing the amount of air the blower puts out.  Motor failure is usually caused by not keeping the filter on the blower. Dirt gets into the motors and ruins the bearings.
