Rick,
I will be on the Gray Hair Net on 1945 at 20:30 local time tonite so
I'll go look at mine before that and send you a note.
As I remember they just relied on a stall, no slip.

Thanks. Mine has a porcelain coupling isolating the rheostat from
the motor drive shaft, but what concerns me is without some kind of
slip apparatus on the two 1 3/8" hubs that connect the rheostat
shaft coupling to the motor drive shaft coupling it would be
possible to do damage to either the motor or resistor if either
limit were reached and the power still applied to the motor and
gearbox. It appears this is the factory installation, but maybe
it's been modified?

Rick,
Its a typical WELL INSULATED flex shaft coupling with the required
size holes. The full 3.1 kv B+ is on the rheostat.
