Heard of a 440, imported though, not original

Startrite originally offered their machines in both 1ph & 3ph, they even sold a few machines in 110v for site work, 3ph is better but a luxury for some, 1ph motors are expensive, as are inverters and you cannot wire a 3ph motor to run on 240v, not in England anyway, also a lot of Startrite...

3 phase motors are relatively cheap, 1 phase can be pricey for a good one S-1s are solid machines, no gearboxes so servicing them is just a matter of changing out bearings You have an old school model, probably 50s/60s maybe 70s, Startrite never logged serial numbers so hard to tell unless the...

Domestic sparkies and industrial sparkies are 2 different things, I was a service engineer for Startrite for years and I would get domestic sparkies phoning me up asking for advice because their owners were too tight to pay me to fix it in the first place. all that is available to buy online...
