I have a motor that I need to identify and repair if possible, it is for a table saw. The parts are missing for the motor. If I can find the manual it would give me the parts I need.

If I need to replace the motor, I could, it's just this came with the tool.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

This ^^^

It's also 54 years old, so finding parts for it, other than replacement ball bearings or generic electrical parts like the starting capacitor or the potential relay, is going to be very difficult.

All of my electric tools are old, really old. I'd rather have a old quality made tool than the cheap trash being made today.

I can fix anything, weld, fabricate, that is what I do and I enjoy seeing a tool running after I repaired it. The band saw servicing only took 8 hours of my time and now it is humming along, the bearings were seized, and after cleaning them up they are in great condition.

The only thing that I can't stand is a FUBAR mess, if you don't know how to repair it, don't touch it unless you have the mechanical aptitude, and you take the time to find a manual for it.

Now that makes sense of the situation, thank you for clearing up the motor problem. I'm sure glad their is a network of knowledge that I can tap into. I'm thrown off by the color, it's identical.

Thanks.

As for the color Craftsman used this color in the late 50s and early 60s almost all of their power tools were that color they called it power bronze I have a table saw form 1959 that is that color also here is a pic of mine after I cleaned her up. And I also like the older tools and love fixing them and using them.

Motors are generally simple to fix. What parts are missing? Short of it having burned up windings the motor should be repairable.

Craftsman radial arm saws are so thick on the ground and so cheap, you can get a complete working saw for less than the cost of any part on the motor.

Recently, I got one given to me via freecycle, just come get it.

Watch craigslist and freecycle and there'll be many coming along.
