Help!! I have a venerable, very sturdy Union Jubilee lathe that must be at least sixty years old. I am in the process of renovation it having just replaced the old 3/4 horsepower motor with a 1 horsepower version I now discover that there is an overload/solenoid switch thingy in a little compartment at the very bottom of the head stock casting, near the floor. This I discover is burnt out, and living on the Isle of Skye we are not inundated with industrial electrical engineers and I will have to replace the part via the Internet. Only problem is I don't 'do' electricity and have no idea what to replace it with and how to wire it. I can sent full details and photos to anyone who might be able to help or advise. Having such a sturdy piece of equipment and spent a fortune on a new motor I don't want to give up now! Any help or ideas great fully received.
