My Ridgid bandsaw is dragging quite a bit when resawing - no matter the speed or blade. It is an old model with a 3/4 HP motor. Is there any issue with swapping out the motor to a 1 or 11/2 HP? Am out of work, can't afford to buy a new one.
Other option is to convert to 240 - but that would still leave a 3/4 motor that may be going bad..Please help.
