Anyone restored a Letz burr mill? colors?

Buckeye · May 11, 2012

I am restoring a Letz 220X burr mill. It is pto driven and on a trailer. The box on top appears to be orange and the frame a light blue. Looking for colors of the unloading auger and the rims. A 50X brochure shoes a black auger, but can't tell if the wheels are black or a lighter color. Any idea of where to get the right colors or decals?

We had a stationary, belt driven one with a feeder.

As I recall, you were right on the colors, the sheet metal was orange and the frame blue. Can't help beyond that. Maybe if you surfed the web.

I just barely remember the Letz burr mill Dad had when I was a kid. Don't even know which model it was, but I think you're correct on the orange and blue. Pretty sure the auger was black, and I THINK the wheels were also black.

It was my job to climb up on top of the ear corn in the corn crib and kick it down so dad could scoop it into the burr mill.

The stationary ones that I know of are an orange on the sheet metal and the frame is a blue/teal color. It may have faded, but 2 different ones are virtually the same color, so I am going to say more of a teal color.
