Yes. There was no switch on my black lamp. I added a generic lamp cable switch one when i put a new cable on it.
Any luck with a key for your TS ? |

Thank you for your reply Rolf.
Yes. There is indeed a new cable on the black one. And a switch. But not rademacher unfortunately, but fine for my needs.
I am leaning towards the black one certainly.
I may borrow the lower fixture and hinge part for the lower joint off the grey lamp and transfer to the black one, to attach to the upright of the Assistent.
MFG. |

the silver one never sold by HAZET - so give it away.
Rademacher was an old company (founded 1914 - included to another company 2018) with many industrial lamps such as scissor lamps or with rollable stands for doctors and laboratories. Only one model of them with different versions over time 1954-1979 was sold by HAZET.
The black one fit to early little "a" Hazet Assistent 160/161/162 of the time frame of 1954 to around 1963 (followed by the same partly in grey, exchanged by a modern design in 1967 - but different to your silver model). The switch is missing the rubber cap to protect against dust and water - but it is mostly missing - the rubber got brittle over the decades. But also the joint at the base is missing and the junction box for the incoming cable (3 cores with grounding incoming - to 2 cores for lamp in front - I hope it is currently securely connected with grounding - spend a new cable also inside to be safe or cut the cable entirely). So quite incomplete and not in such a good condition.

So. I now have two Rademacher lamps.
Question: which should I give to my buddy. ? I only want one to keep one lamp for myself. I think the black one is better suited to my needs !!! What do you guys think ? |

Took a spare bucket and made something for my kids to enjoy at car shows. Next thing is to convert it to RC so I can control it and make seat for trailer. Only so many ways you can get your kids into old tool boxes! 😂

Hello again everyone,
a new addition to my 1954 "Hazet Assistent 160" project:
an old Rademacher 12-304 lamp also sold as Hazet 1615 with a switch over the lampshade to the front (instead of later from 1967 upwards) in black as in the Hazet catalogs 1954 to before 1963 (in the 1963 catalog it is in grey, e.g. back of catalogue). It needs some work, better a new cable and a new rubber cap to protect the switch from dust and humidity... It is enameled, not painted - to be able to use the old hot 200 Watt light bulbs (seen in an old Rademacher ad - but have also seen stickers on such lamps with only 60 Watts?!?).
1954 catalog page 32: Assistent 160 with stool 1610 and this kind of lamp 1615

Well, tis no Rademacher, but it works, and it was $6 at Habitat ReStore for the light, $25 for the rechargeable power brick, and 30 minutes of time and some JB Weld!
Also, no worries about slicing the cord and putting 120V into the cart...

Hello again,
the nameplate of my 1954 "Hazet Assistent 160" at the mid floor...
Like many of its age, it lacks the clamped-on front mask with window (I will try to rebuild this later).
There are two recesses on the side, in which the front mask grips (I found photos of front masks also with recesses there).
The base plate with a width of 45 mm (1.8") was not screwed on, but fastened with sheet metal rivets.

Hello again,
I'm still in the process of stripping (including post-lacquered rust protection as ugly red lead priming coat ) and de-rusting of my 1954 "Hazet Assistent 160"...
Some more details as these inscription at top:
"DBP u Auslandspatente angem" ("German federal patent" and "Foreign patents pending"):
Furthermore, a "92" (serial number?) and at both sides an unknown character like a tick similar to a 4 or the side flanks of the Hazet logo:

Hello everybody
some first photos of the locking mechanism of a Hazet Assistent 160 (1954).
Only the locking mechanism has 21 parts.
dismantled locking mechanism under the table top with the two rods in the columns for locking:
dismantled lock:
the key turns a disc with 2 sliders - the bitting is unused - only need to fit to the disc:
dismantled lock parts:
I wish you a Merry Christmas,
