Silicone may be O/K unless you need too remove same , Just brush a load of yacht varnish on your repair.

Has always been O/k when I have done similar repairs,

This may not be of any help, If you would like a copy of British Standard Cycle Threads i have same

Use some cable Ties to hold your repair . Looking at your pics I guess the windings are solid hbecause of the age they used to dip these in a type of shellac and then bake in a oven to dry . Most new motors today I have seen Are just wound and tied or laced together and are not shellaced . Sounds very good will now work ?. Motors today cannot be rewound because they weld the cases together . A throw away society

Brian

No continuity through the start winding sounds bad check that there is no thermal cut out buried into the start winding that has gone open circuit,Then look carefully all round the windins that there is not a break in one of the coil windings hve found this problem myself , also that you have not got a solder dry joint good luck. Everything looks to good to give up on jusy yet Just Double Check everything again.

100, Percent the centrifugal switch part that moves on the motor shaft has stuck quite common on motors that have not been used for some time Yes you will have to remove both wheels and the end caps from the motor . Be carefull when moveing the end caps because the bearings are in the end , Will need to be firmly pushed a block of wood and hammer to split Take care once they have. split Easy to damage Centifugal Switch good luck

Brian

Clive a great offer from Ian, If the answer to 6 leads into the motor when dismanteled provides a answer this may be interesting ? A mystery at the moment Unless 2 Wire to Thermal overload .

Brian

Yes this will record the amperage that your motor is using when running . There are several on E Bay Affraid I live in

Cambridgshire. Not Next door . E Bay prices are all similar All have to clamped on the live feed cable only,

Have never seen a DC model?.Any further problems feel free to come back.

Brian

Yes you do require a clip on ammeter, Your meter would have to be connected in series to obtain a reading and probably will not go high enough in the Amperage range How high does it go needs to be 10 amps AC or higher

I have a clip on meter .Depends where you live Not any where In Cambridgeshire? Yes you may here the centrifugal Switch click out . Capacitor start is a Question . Some Motors do not have capacitors . I have Four that do not Capacitors. Brian

When switched of does your machine stop quickly or slow down slowly.

Puzzle 6 wires going into the motor 2 May be Start windings Centrifugal changes this to Run windings .

Further 2 May reverse the motor rotation when switched of to act as brake to stop motor.

If we knew the Ohms readings on these Possible 3 sets of windings if theyare the case lots of questions and answers may start to make some sence.

Yes a Scematic wireing diagram would provide all of the answers , at the moment we are all trying to find the correct answer.

Any Control fitted into you mains lead will not have any .effect on any control s beyond this point

Brian

Any Control Fitted into the mains lead that is a D O L has NVR and Thermal overload wiil not affected any other motor controls that hve not been touched..

Brian

Machine w ireing is not important. just connect your blue and brown to your DOL syarter switch then and a further length of 3 core flex to the other side contccts in your DOL starte relay .connevt the where availabe the ont o your machine this will complte the earthing process . any overload protection should be then complete if provided with your new started switch .Eveething thenshould be OK.

Have a look at Lathes UK website on Homemade Lathes .. The One built by Japanesse P O W during World War !! amazeing. Lots of time required to read all of the stories

Have a look on Machine Marts website.

Only need to refit hand wheel job complete

Brian Morehen

The Wolf Cub and the Black Decker bothe fit into a Picador Cradle that will then make a small lathe and cicular saw still have these and are in working order .. Thiink these were bought in the sixties.
