Thank you all for your "total response".  I saw from the archives that
this was an active and growing list, but I had no idea... <G>
>From you notes, and given the relative value of the unit, I think I'll
just power it up.  If I had a regulated supply with variable limiting,
I'd use that, but...  I had gotten the idea from the archives that the
PTO would likely need a mechanical rebuild, and will undertake that
myself.
One more question:  Are there *exact* instructions available for removing
and replacing the knob (I think that's the tricky one...)?  I work as a
plumber and sometimes I have to guess how to remove fixture handles that
have "blind" fastenings - and it's a frightening experience, especially
as the owner is usually standing there, watching avidly to see if you
destroy their $800 imported faucet... <GG>  The nitty picky details help
a lot in these cases.
Again, Thanks for all your help.    Rufus
