Some time ago the barrel switch became hard to turn with artharitic
hands. I replaced it with 5 contactors. Now I have a 4 position easy to
turn direction and speed switch. Controll is with a start and a stop
push button-- much easier.
I had a 1hp. DC motor on my previous lathe. I kept the motor planning
to install it on the S11. It will take some inginuity to fit it on the
motor mount. I really do miss the DC drive. So nice when threading to a
sholder.Where did you get the varispeed AC drive? Sounds as tho it
might be as good (or better?) than the DC.
