Thanks Togs, The wiring back to house is probably 30 years old, the workshop itself was rewired 2 years ago. I cant remember the exact gauge of the wire off the top of my head but I'm pretty sure its all standard stuff. I'll definitely check for dust in the circuitry, I'm willing try anything...

Thanks for all the help, I did manage to get it working although the machine itself is still playing up. It trips the main breaker in the house 50% of the time when starting, thought the switch may have been the problem... Maybe try the bearings next? It seems like an electrical problem as it...

Hi, Can anyone give me some pointers on wiring this new starter? Ideally I'd get a engineer in but that's not an option at the moment. On the existing one there's a piece of wire going from l2 to t1, not sure if this needs to be used in the new switch. I'm also unclear as to whether the loose...

3M stuff is really good. I have the 7500 series which takes replaceable filers. It's also very comfortable. Axminster do stepped adaptors for connecting odd hoses so you could also try that, it's preferable to catch dust at the source

Recently did this on my Stromab. New 19mm wbp bed, use the old one to copy fixing points. Dont try and put the fence too far back as it limits the height of the workpiece you can fit under the blade. Been using the 3m Flipstop system for years now, very easy to set up. You need a 40mm wide...

Hi folks, My ts4010 wont stay running unless i hold down the start button, I took the switch apart and found the electromagnetic coil had some burn marks on it and the wires had snapped. Does this indicate any deeper problem with the motor or does the switch just need replacing? I had the same...
