Are there safety interlocks on the machine? If not, any generic magnetic motor starter set for the appropriate motor current should be fine.?

The switch assembly is a black plastic box with red and green off/on switches actuated by square buttons, plus a place for a safety lock behind the removable blade cover. ?There is some electronic (early plug-in IC chips) controlled by the switches. ?I've confirmed that the power gets to the switches, but either the switch(es) themselves are broken or the chip(s) are fried. ?I've hunted around but so far no luck, and perhaps this community might know where to find a full switch assembly or compnent parts (or if anyone has a dead Euro-260 in storage and wants to sell me their switch, glad to talk more). It is such a cool little bandsaw I hate to give up on it. ?I haven't found a part number on this thing, but photos attached.?
Thanks to all....?
