Have you tried F W Hercus 8346 5522 (SA) if they don't have them any more I would suggest you just replace it with one from a electical supply

One of our local guys had to replace the lot as what was in there was very old hat and did not comply with current standards.

He was pleased he did as it all worked a lot better than the original.

I am unsure what the electrician fitted but your local guys should be able to help, just give them all the details of the motor and show them the switch and other gear .

Dave its not a major should take the sparky 15mins or so. If you remove it and take it along to your local wholesaler, they will supply a modern equivelent for around $100 I just did this on my Woodfast.
