The motor has fried on my South Bend lathe. I need some rewinding information: number of coils, coil connection, lead-out connections, any type of diagram a real motor rewinder could use to strip and rewind this motor back to factory condition. This is NOT a repulsion-induction motor, capacitor-start motor, or any of the other common type of motor. It is also NOT a three-phase motor, as might be surmised from the connection diagram. Single-phase only - uses only two of the three windings show for running. T-1 is always connected to L-1 (hot), and EITHER T-2 or T-3 is connected through a drum switch to neutral for reversing the motor. Very few motor rewind shops still in existence :-(. With proper information I can rewind this myself; I have successfully rewound a 6KW generator stator. The motor and lathe were assembled in 1936. zuhnc
