There was no helmet on that mill. It is considered an "Open-Gear" mill. All parts are open to the weather. Aermotor made a weather-proof enclosed, self oiling, mostly maintenance-free windmill in 1915. That would be the Model 502, which lasted 1 year I think. In 1916 they modified it to a Model 602 which went until 1933.
Not sure what a 'Lookout" is you are saying.
Sorry, I am confused with your last post. But then again, I am easily confused anyway.
