Big Boy 80 edge sander - replacement motor?
I recently picked up a Big Boy 80 edge sander second hand for next to nothing, but it is missing the motor. Just wonder where I could get one in Adelaide / online.
Motor: 1.5 HP, 50HZ, 10amp (single phase) - Shaft size I am not quite sure on. I did measured the inside diameter of the cylinder that goes onto the shaft and it was around 19mm - 3/4"? The length of the shaft has to be fairly long to go through the cylinder and bolt on.
Would this be a specialty motor for this machine or could you get one off the shelf?
