Hello all,
I posted the response, below, and two pictures, back on 15 February
but never saw the full thread posted back to Google Groups. I'm
reposting the text of my response in hopes that --- if the pictures
haven't made it through --- then perhaps this will at least help.
[begin post from 15 February]
Thanks for all of the helpful questions. I'm including two pictures
showing the innards (one in this post, the second in a following
post).
trimmer.0.jpg shows what I think is a noise suppression filter with
the white wire coming down at about "7:00" on the picture. Perhaps
you'll be able to see that two black wires coming from the [filter]
connect in to the (red) secondary switch.
trimmer.1.jpg shows the red secondary switch. The wires coming out of
that connect to the magnets, one of which you can see in this picture
at about "10:00" on the photo.
MikeB asked
Does the trigger have push-in connections for the wires. No, it
doesn't. (I realize trimmer.1.jpg is a bit blurry, and there are two
areas that look like they might actually be push-in connections, but
they are the screws holding together the two sides of the switch.
Bill asked
Does the motor have two wires going to it. Yes. There are only two
wires coming from the red switch, and each goes to one magnet.
HR(Bob) asked about make, model, manufacturer, and age. It is an AEG
HES 65, made (I think) by AEG-TELEFUNKEN; I've contacted the current
embodiment of their company to no avail. The only difference between
the one I have and the advertisement at the link below is a safety
guard between the blades and where the model's right hand is.

Age? I'm not sure. That Rotarian magazine advertisement is from June
1981, so I'm guessing it's around there. There are no digital
components in this.
Thanks very much, everyone.
Regards,
James
