I have a new (to me) 14" Standard Modern Utilathe. It came with a single phase 110/220 3 HP "Century Repulsion Start Induction" motor....this beast must weigh in at 300lbs!
I haven't installed the motor yet. These motors seem to take forever to wind down. I can't imagine tapping a hole and needing to stop and reverse out.
Do other motors stop instantly? Does the "stop" function apply some type of brake or load? I think I am confused.
