Help!
I have a 20+ year old Craftsman Radial Arm Saw (model 113.199450), on which the motor just burned out. Sears (noth the website and the phone help people) says they can no longer get that motor because it's not made anymore. The motor part # was 63608. Neither can I get parts for it. At this point, the answer I get from Sears is to just pop on over to my local Sears store & buy a new saw. However, that's about $600 more than I was hoping to spend.
Are there any other sources in the world for replacement motors? I've googled the model & part numbers ti no avail. I was hoping someone here knew of another electric motor source.
I've surfed previous messges in this group, and a recurring theme mentions a centrifugal switch that's supposed to cut out the starting circuit. But neither the Sears psrts listing nor the motor itself reveals anything that looks like a switch. Am I somehow missing it?
