Hi,
I'm an IH mill owner and new here. I wanted to say "hello" and to ask some advice:
I've had my mill for a couple of years and have only used it a few times. It is setup for manual use and I probably have less than 10 hours on it if that much. I used it last Sunday to mill some slots in some bar. I needed to do some more tonight but the (stock) motor would not turn and just sit there and buzz loudly. I pulled the motor off, braced it and tried starting it. It would only turn very slowly at few rpms, buzzed very loudly and got hot real quick. Replacement motors seem to be hard to find. I'm not a machinist so adapter plates/bushings are not on the menu in my shop. What would you guys suggest for an easy replacement to get this thing back running again? Also, has anyone had trouble with the switch....mine is verrry hard to turn to the point the knob will need to be replaced.
Thanks,
LJ
