Just got this rare Steam motor made by Holzapfel of Switzerland.
Made a test run today - it is a good runner. Enjoy, Arnold
Have the original description from 1984:
Two-cylinder steam engine "Holzapfel W 80".
The ideal purpose-built engine for good performance and wide touring range, as an emergency generator or outdoor toy drive. High-speed runner with two oscillating cylinders, self-starting in any position. Strong construction with good lubrication allows continuous operation. Reverse control allows forward, reverse and stop position under steam pressure. All parts bolted together and therefore easy to dismantle for cleaning.
Test pressure 10 bar, propane burner. Capacity at 3 bar 1200 rpm = 1/4 Ps. Weight 15 Kg
Year of manufacture 1984
