Wadkin AGS

[Nev Hallam]

I have a 3 phase wadkin AG10 Its in the workshop of Dave at Timber Team Leics at the min, he was in the process of swapping a single phase motor for my 3 phase one, however he found the single phase was for a 12 inch wadkin and was not suitable for my 10". He may have another single phase or be able to source one but not for definite, just wondered if anyone had any info of any single phase motors that might be for sale or suitable for the job? Do let me know.
Cheers

Nev

Nev,

The problem you will have with any new motor will be the size of the shaft, the old motor will only have a 1/2" or 5/8" and a new motor will be 19mm at least. I had this with my motor swap and had the pulley bored out.

There are some good ones on ebay at the moment.
