Serial-number lookup
Gearmotor manufacturer Bodine Electric Co. has expanded product information and support at www.bodine-electric.com/support. Now information and parts can be identified (and purchased) with just a serial number; connection diagrams and operating manuals can also be downloaded instantly. Available are mounting brackets, terminal boxes, capacitors, replacement brushes, and springs. When a serial number search identifies a custom-built OEM product, the new support tool provides that OEM's contact information or a distributor link.
