Hi all.
I am trying to help a friend that needs a 1.5 HP motor for a Jet Drill Press - where he works. I dont know much about motors I have this spare motor sitting in the garage - that I would let him have . There is no cooling fan and shroud- like on my drill press motor. Could it be run in a vertical position? I would think a vertical motor would need thrust bearings. Would this type motor hold up to run production all day?
Thanks for any help. Jim.
