Hello, all.
I'm a brand new member, and this is my 1st post. Not even sure if I'm posting in the correct forum, so please bear with me.
I have just fallen in to an old Tauwanese lathe. It is a Kin Shin model KS3.5FK built in 1976. I.ve done a little investigating, and it seems to be identical to a Jet 1024 (foung an owner's manual on-line).
Question: The machine is in great shape, but I suspect the 110 hp motor is toast. Not even sure if it's the original. Anybody have any idea what specs I should be looking for in a substitute? Horsepower, speed, etc.?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
