Thanks for the input, guys. I've gotten two manuals and some pointers on spare parts. Haven't had the time or energy to host these on the net yet. I will at some point. The bearings are all dried up and I could have greased them up in a pinch but they show sign of wear and contamination. Miles...

Oh, I haven't written it off, far from it. Most of the information I have on refurbishing an old RAS is from OWWM and American sources. It's just the European touches and the weird numbering that is problematic.

The motor is powered by a Steinmetz connection simulating the third phase. There is a performance loss due to this but it's factory issue so the motor stats all factor this in. The motor is reported to be 1kW with this setup. It's a common way to easily convert equipment from three to one-phase...

Could be it's made in 78. The arm digits suggest 1972, 05 but they don't have to be manufactured at the same time. I drew a blank from googling the bearing as well. I got a hit on skf.com but they routed me to some weird bearings far from the ones I have. I imagine the capacitor is a power...

I don't have that shim between the carriage and yolk. When lubricated the movement is free and easy enough so I'm not concerned. Glad to see the "flower" has a name. I figured out how to dismantle it a while ago. I think I would have preferred the old system on American DeWalt with a locking...

Again, thanks a lot for the input, guys. Helps me piece together this puzzle. :) The yolk looks like the 125 here: http://www.mtmc.co.uk/Spare-Parts/Dewal ... 18848.aspx Piece number 41 I don't recognize. The large bolt fastening the two largest parts of the yolk is locked with a weird...

I checked Elu RAS models earlier since that could be the case but no luck. Another thread here claims the 110 is the previous model of the 111 and later the 125 so that puts it at early 70s, I think. SKF is a quality brand but on the OWWM forum someone claimed that a Chinese company was the...

Thanks a lot for the help, guys. I've read a bit about this type of bearing on American forums and they are specially made for this era RASes. Miles and others carry the type (the curved outer ring) but as said, size matters. I've completely ripped the saw apart at this stage and the motor...

I sent Miles an e-mail asking if they kept the dimensions on the various bearings but they did not. I said I had a DW110 and that I couldn't find it on their list but either they don't know the model or they didn't think to mention it. I live in Norway so any attempt to look at the UK DeWalt...

Thanks for replying. :) I called the service center but they usually don't keep tabs on such old tools. They promised to dig around and give me a call if they found anything. I can manage pretty much everything myself if I can verify that the 110 uses the same bearings as the 125, or any other...

Greetings! I've searched high and low for a manual for a DeWalt DW110 RAS. I found some promising threads a few years old but the links in them are all dead. A couple of questions: I've gathered this is pretty much the same as a DW111 and later a DW125; Are the bearings on the sled the same...
