Some years ago I was using a pair to remotely switch my antennas.
The don't have a lot of tork but these were huge.
Actualy you hook them up in paralel terminal 1 to terminal 1 and so on,
and hook up AC to the terminals marked AC with the apropriate voltage.
When hooked up this way, turning one shaft will cause the other to turn.
Most of them are for  400 HRZ but will work on 60 HRZ
