Hello,

with a new cup motor i need for my WP50 Earth pellet stove, i need the 2 pronged Lovejoy motor coupler, most the the suppliers selling the motor do NOt include the coupler??

Cup motor # 15060 Earth / Lennox
Lovejoy motor coupler # ?????????????????

&/or a supplier on east coast or this side of USA that has the motor and coupler in stock, it seems most suppliers i found with a coupler are in california with no contact inf, which does that mean they are chinese junk parts off the ships?
Why isn't there any legit pellet stove part suppliers here on the east coast or North east USA?

Thank you
 
I keep looking at NE as your location and keep thinking Nebraska. Farm supply stores carry couplers here in farm country. I have to get a couple bearings for the Bixby this week and the place is a major bearing and motor supply but just can't remember their name. Have you any electric motor supply or motor repair shop near you?

You could contact these folks. They seem to have most of the parts for the stove.

Hi Gents,

Do any of you happen to have the parts list for my WP50 stove, i need the rubber bushing part # that goes on the LoveJoy coupler....
So far, A-1 Stoves.com actually answers a phone, but they nor noone else can find the rubber bushing, because woodheatstoves & A-1 have the motor with coupler, but not the coupler rubber bushing, urggggg? (another guy lost the bushing last year for my stove, go figure, what a knucklehead, crap ::-))

I need the motor & coupler and bushing, the motor went bad, and the other guy threw all three away he believes, go friggen figure, stupid
so to save money, i need to buy all three the best way i can

Now, i could save over half the money if i could find the coupler and rubber bushing from Grainger or McMaster or Zoro and then order the motor for around $63 to $77 from either Amazon or ebay or GleasonAvery!!! But so far i can't find the coupler, NOR the rubber bushing for the coupler... i wonder if Grainger or McMaster could cross reference the coupler and the bushing, where Zoro said they could not, nor could Zoro match up a coupler. bummer...

Unless one of you Guru's online here actually have a link to the coupler and the bushing, then i would be golden to order the Amazon motor for $63 ;)

I just emailed a PDF copy of the parts list, from woodheatstoves.com, to your email address you used to register here.
 
Last time I needed a Lovejoy for my log splitter I looked the one I needed on their site and then punched in that part number on Amazon.
 
Your stove is on page 86.
 
Yeah. They ain't gears. As long as they are for the right shaft size you can adjust on the shaft to get a fit.
 
Now for the CUP motor , i feel like some of the suppliers are deceiving us....????

The dirty rats are showing the Gleason Avery motor in their picture, but the description is void of the motor brand or mfg, why???
seems like bait and switch, they are showing one brand, but really lying and selling something else, why do they have to lie?
Is bait and switch illegal?
seems like they are having a picture war or too lazy to take a real picture or deliberately using a Gleason Avery picture to sell a Chinese motor?

Cup Motor choices for best price (i found them from $63 to $211 (my local dealer wanted $300, really, gee whiz, go figure, bummer)
(I really wanted to buy from local stove shop, but they had no clue, they wanted $300 for the motor and had no clue on coupler & spider, real bummer.)

do you all know if their pictures are 100% accurate in what they are selling (and maybe they are too stupid to state it in the ad???)
