Please excuse our resident gearheads, but you'll have to stick with a 1ph motor. A 3ph won't work. You might be able to find a local electrical motor shop that would be willing to rebuild your old motor.

You can get single phase motors for most lathes from Grizzly or (as bad as I hate to recommend these guys) Harbor Freight. Single phase 110 220 3/4 horse for a little over $100.00. With there 20% coupons it will be pretty cheap.

Did the lathe successfully run the way it is currently hooked up, or has it recently been installed where it sits?
Here's why I ask... I obtained an Enco lathe 30 years or so ago used from a mechanic's garage that was going out of business, and the power was shut off there. It had a 110v cord on it. We hooked it up at home and it had little power/speed. I took the motor to the local motor guru, and he said it was a 220v motor hooked up for 110. He wired it properly and furnished a proper plug for it for $20.00 We then wired a receptacle with the proper setup and have never looked back. It runs great to this day. It's a nice little machine. Your mileage may vary. |
