★ Original Trico vacuum wiper motor as used on WWII military vehicles. These motors were standard equipment on various American military vehicles with open cab during the war.
Application
This vacuum wiper motor was fitted to WWII military vehicles with open cab configuration. The system operates on vacuum supplied by the combination fuel/vacuum pump. The motor features a manual operating lever for emergency situations.
Installation notes
The motor is mounted to the windscreen using a special mounting bracket. Connection is made via vacuum hoses to the fuel/vacuum pump. Ensure correct routing of vacuum hoses and check for leaks. On vehicles with fording capability, a return line to the air filter is required. A restrictor of 0.040 inch diameter in the T-fitting to the distributor is necessary for correct operation.
Compatibility
This is the standard open cab wiper motor (S-583-1). Note: closed cab vehicles use a different type of motor (Trico KSB series). Right and left motors are not interchangeable. Wiper arm position may vary depending on mounting location (top or bottom of windscreen).
Historical context
Trico vacuum wiper motors were fitted as standard equipment on American military vehicles from the early 1940s. The vacuum system remained in use until approximately 1960, when electric systems became the norm.
