Comments:
This motor belongs to my Delta 1460 Wood Lathe. The lathe dates to 1939/40 but the motor was added later along with a Cutler-Hammer starter switch that was dated 1946 on the schematic inside the switch cover. I rebuild the motor in 2019. Cleaned, varnished the coils, replaced the bearings and starter. I posted some notes on the restoration on OWWM at http://www.owwm.org/viewtopic.php?f=82&t=203248.
