The casting that holds the work surface that clamps to the bottom beam, it should have one of the same washers to prevent marking the beam.

That's the one. There should be another on the table carriage.

There should be an alloy disc with a dimple in the middle to locate the screw.

TP = bandits IMO If you have your wits about you and pay attention to their pricing you'll soon catch them out. It can be fun though, give them enough rope and they'll soon trip themselves up. As they say comedy is all about timing, knowing when to snort the punch line and head for the door...

Not quite component form but mostly apart. I'll break the frame down and then it's all to drag to the electrolysis tank for a long soak. Bearings looked OK, plenty of grease and no ingress which I was worried about as its sat outside some time. I'll see how they wash up and fingers crossed...

This saw came with a 10hp 3 ph motor. The blade is well past use, hardly a tooth left on it, a new one will cost more than I paid for the machine :roll:

Thanks fella's, the help is much appreciated. The solid advice hasn't fallen on deaf ears, as and when I take the machine to the 3 phase equipped workshop I'll have a sparky check all is well before startup. I'll change the wires as advised. There's a part of me that resists paying for...

Thanks for the pointers on literature Trevanion, I'll have a look to see if any are available, I like books being from a age when there was no internet. Bob, I'm not the type for modern machines. I'm not sure there's anything available I'd spend money on other than very high end machines which...

Hi Bob, Bit of a project but no drama, simple machine really that appears to be without any terminal problems. I like how it's the table that moves rather than the arbor. I'll be looking to use it to it's potential, up to 8" ish.

I dragged this back recently, a project no doubt but I think there's potential. There's no name cast into it s no sign of s missing plate, does anyone recognise it as being from a certain manufacturer? At the moment it's known as the farm saw as that's where I got it from!

The machine is at a different workshop to where I have three phase, I called by a snapped a pic you of the board/breaker. There's just a socket at the other end, I just swap over for different machines. The machine still has its original switch, I'll be looking to keep that as its suitably aged...

It's only this connection, the rest is as ran previously. I understand you safety stance but I'm skint enough without employing an electrician at this stage. Hopefully a motor plate pic.

Hopefully s picture

This machine came to me with the wiring off the motor and I'm at the stage where it's to do but I know not what I'm doing! Can anyone help? The photo I'm trying to upload is too big apparently and I'm at a loss as to resizing on my phone. I have three terminals on the motor, labelled A1, B1...

Cheeky first post, my apologies. If the vice is for sale I'd be interested
