Baldor Motor Help Please

It might make a good motor for a woodworking tool like a table saw, jointer or planer. I believe it has a 5/8" straight shaft. Assuming it works $50 is a decent price.
 
For $50 I'd grab it in hopes the pressure washer pump was good or rebuildable. It probably has a 5/8 keyed shaft, most of those pumps have a 5/8 female input. If the pump is trash, you've got a good motor.

Most important question, " IS THE PUMP FROZEN ON THE MOTOR SHAFT " ? Pressure washer pump like this one are famous for freezing to the motor shaft if not properly prepared when assembled.

yes, the motor is worth 50 bucks! :grin:
@3450 rpm is a bit fast for machine tools but a disc or belt sander could easily be made from it
 
They closed the shop so he just gave it to me still haven't done anything with it though
