I have an older version of this motor on my "whole house fan" (what most people call an attic fan).  The fan started to have a little rattle so I crawled up into attic and found a loose set screw on fan blade assembly.  The fan ended up being quieter than ever.  So Now I started noticing the slight squeak in belt and the rattle of some of the louvers and who knows what else.  I have no started to look into all parts to service.  Ordered a new belt.  Noticed it says to lube with motor oil, so I guess I will look for oil port/s.  

 

Anyway onto my electric question.  As it sits now I only have an on/off switch.  I ordered a Master flow 2 speed fan control switch BWS2 without thinking.  Now that it is here I looked up how to wire it.  Seems you need a fan set up for 2 speeds.  Well I have no idea if this motor can or is a 2 speed motor?????

 

Thank you
