So 250 views on my other thread where the title wasn't as specific, so I'll try again...
Kingston Conley single phase, 110v, 1/2 hp, 1740 rpm. It's model name is "SB" so it may be original, or a specifically designed replacement. Seems to date from the 49-50 period of the lathe.
Inside the wiring compartment for the motor, is a simple plastic terminal block with two studs for the two motor wires, and corresponding hot and neutral feeds (I have had to add a ground to the motor case as there was no provision for one).
When I got the lathe, it had a simple on-off wall switch mounted on the gear guard.
Is this all the motor is capable of? If so, no point in getting a fwd/rev drum switch, right?
Appreciate any help. I'd like to get this running.
