Dust Extractor Stalling
I have a 2Hp, single phase, older model dust extractor that every once and a while stalls at start up - ie: you can hear that the motor is trying to turn, but does not start spinning. When that occurs I give the blades a bit of a turn with a wooden rod through the dust hose port (when OFF), and when I start it up again, it works as normal. Has anyone else had similar issues, and is there a solution?
Thanks

Most likely the start capacitor is failing.
It is usually a round canister on the side of the motor.
If you are not experienced around electrical get an electrician to assist.
