Paul,
As another model T fan and previous owner of a 26 C cab, I have had my
share of hand cranking. I feel there is one more mildly important rule of
cranking. It is if the entire spin cycle is broken down like a clock; safe
cranking is done form 6:00 to 12:00 because of the potential for getting your
arm into the backfire spin zone. Watching a real T nut you will usually only
see quarter turns, because the power in your cranking is right there, and
because onlookers are amazed at the easy start in a couple quarter turn lifts.
