Thank you so much. You just saved me a lot of time and headache trying to replace bearings on a dead motor. OMG this thing has been running continuously for a while. It’s a miracle my garage didn’t burn down but I always had a fan blowing on the motor because duh it always ran hot. It’s almost this same exact model and used to run a Lortone rock tumbler with three 12 lb barrels.

A friend gave me combination belt/disc sander. He said the capacitor was replaced, but that the replacement capacitor had died. As you know, this meant the motor did not rotate, just hummed until the shaft was moved then it ran fine. I purchased a new capacitor and it now runs. Just another example of how a motor can fail, but in this case an inexpensive fix. Too bad the starter circuit does not shut off. As you said, good that you caught this before it overheated. Dave.

When the cord is damaged and I have to remove it, and the plug is a moulded one, I usually bend the pins of the plug before I throw it away. So the plug won't fit into a socket outlet anymore. It prevents that, in the worst case ,a kid finds it and out of curiousity plugs it into a socket outlet and gets shocked by the open end.

Got the electric start working fine BUT after the mower starts, it won't restart till it sits a bit.THEN you have to lay the ether to it because the primer don't work. I'd cut the cord but it goes to the charger for the battery. See, you're not by yourself, Johnny! God Bless!

You didn't fail - it was just a burned out motor - not your fault. I find the best source of great motors are when a neighbor or relative tosses out an old washing machine. I've never had a washer motor go bad, it's usually the electronics or control panel. I have motors from old washers that I have been using for 35-40 years and still going strong. I do agree with you - if the cord is missing or cut - PASS!

I don't know much about motors but would appreciate your advice... I would like to get a 1/4 hp motor for continuous use. I would be running this motor all day, everyday for long time. I'm making a rock tumbler & using it to tumble rocks. This will be running for weeks at a time 24 hour a day. I don't know if I need a single phase motor. Or if there are motors with built in fans within the motor to keep it cool? I heard Dayton or Marathon motors are good. Any advice Or input on this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks 😎

😂. Same here! Those readings can be all over the place. 😃👍
No one can be 100% lucky all the time.
A good sniff with the nose will often tell if the windings are toast. Start windings and run windings.

Yes! I always sniff a motor before buying and did this one too but it had no burnt smell whatsoever! It got me good! 😂👍
You can always learn from a failure.
By major coincidence someone will throw out a motor for the poors mans fleamarket with a cracked housing or bent shaft or something this week. We can only hope😄
.SOME NEED A LITTLE MORE FINE TUNING THAN OTHERS..LOL..GOOD ONE, KEEP WELL...
I think you need to do a megging on these motors and cords
I have a grinder motor wih a similar problem. MIne has a starter relay that shuts off the starting winding once it reaches a set speed. The relay burned out and I can't find a new one. I could put a manual switch in the control circuit to shut off the starting winding. Not sure if it is worth the trouble. 😁😁😎😎
Next up ---- Kilowatt Meters
I don't know much about motors but would appreciate your advice... I would like to get a 1/4 hp motor for continuous use. I would be running this motor all day, everyday for long time. I'm making a rock tumbler & using it to tumble rocks. This will be running for weeks at a time 24 hour a day. I don't know if I need a single phase motor. Or if there are motors with built in fans within the motor to keep it cool? I heard Dayton or Marathon motors are good. Any advice Or input on this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks 😎
It's thermally protected, so at some point the thermal should open and shut down the motor.
Even though you are "the cord cutter" I agree, electric issue, cut the cord. Mechanical issue, maybe somebody else can figure it out.
1/3 hp motor, but 115v x 6.6 amps should be almost 1 hp? I must be missing something.
That was burnt worse than a Friar’s Club Roast.😜🤪
Can you check the draw of amperage where the power cord hooks up on the motor? Using your voltage meter ? I think mine has an amp measurement on it .?? But is there a way to check if you don’t have that measurement tool you have John.

Hook! Yes there is, I will cover it soon. 😃👍
Hello what does this motor do?
Bell-end plus mallet??????😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮🤣👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
what did you use to see how much amperage it was drawing?

It’s a small devise called a Kill-a-watt I will demonstrate it this week. 😃👍

Kill-A-Watt Meter, they display watts, amps, voltage and such. About $30 or so.
What the Heck..!!😂😅
Haii❤
Very interesting but too bad.
If electric motors require oil, does that mean you need to take an EV car to get its oil changed?
Why is your hand so small and why does it look plastic? Why does your arm look wooden?
