Scored this machine for $50 on Craigslist. Pretty awesome deal and I wouldn't have been able to afford it otherwise. It came with this monster antique motor that I'm trying to date and get general restoration and lubrication advice. It has oil cups and I spilled a lot of it as I hand trucked it around. The Belsaw needs cleaned up and I'm pretty sure I need to buy new feed rollers or have these recoated. Any info on the motor or machine is appreciated. Thanks for looking.

I have a thread on OWWM about it. I was asking about it there before I bought it. Just posting about it in multiple places to gather information.
wow, fun project. i was sitting here studying the pictures and see that it uses what appears to be a sacrificial table. Have not seen one like that before. One nice thing, you can see the rollers. Should make getting them out and back in place a lot easier than on some planers. I think I would look for a more modern 240V motor. Nice find. Best of luck on the restore of it.
I learned that the sacrificial in feed table was for the rip saw attachment.
I'm not sure I can afford a new motor at the moment. If this one doesn't work, I'll have to buy one eventually.
