Baldor's reputation for hardworking, clean-running motors gets another boost from this model. Unlike OEM motors on some pretty well-known tools, this one's sealed, heading off sparking, bogging and an inevitable decline in power. The ball bearings are lubricated with high-temperature, moisture-resistant grease, and the totally enclosed motor is fan-cooled. It's built for farm use, so its epoxy paint exterior is prepared for the harshest conditions. It's a superb replacement motor for everything from workshop tools to farm equipment and its horse-and-a-half won't let you down.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 baldor saves deltabandsaw August 9, 2003
16 out of 16 found this review helpful
I bought a delta 14" bandsaw with a 6" extension kit hoping to saw up a bunch of wood. Was I mistaken! After only one afternoon of re-sawing, the emerson motor died. I have baldor motors on some other equipment with no failures , so when I found these motors on AMAZON I ordered one. (Much less costly than any other source I could find too!) Shipping was free! the motor fits perfectly,even the pulley fit correctly. However, when I hooked it up according to the Baldor supplied diagrams it ran the wrong direction. After an hour on the internet I found a wiring diagram to have the motor running in the correct direction. Now my new saw cuts great! No bogging down, no vibration and much less noise. Why in the world would Delta cripple an otherwise great bandsaw with inferior motors? They should use bigger baldor motors. I would have given the motor a five if the wiring diagram were more complete and included full instructions for directional wiring .low opp(115v) join 1,3&5 to line A; 4 to line B; join 2,J&8. and for High opp (220v) join 1&5 to line A; 4 to line B; join 2,3&8; cap J
Delta Bandsaw upgrade March 31, 2003
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought this motor because the resawing capability of the std. 3/4 hp motor on my Delta bandsaw left much to be desired. This motor does not have that problem. It has plenty of power. For those of you considering upgrading your Delta bandsaws, I have a word of caution. The enclosed base of the saw is very tight and this motor is significantly longer than the 3/4hp std. I had to reverse the motor mounting bars inside the base and relocate the saw itself on the base(re-drilling holes) , toward the edge, to get it all to work. Relocating the saw was important because it was the only way to make the motor pulley line up with the saw pulley. Also, if you don't make these mod's, the motor's fan sits right up against the side of the base of the saw. This make's it very difficult for the motor's fan to draw enough air to effectively cool the motor. One other point: while the Furnas contactor that came with the saw was sufficient to handle the load of the new motor, I felt the std. wiring which is 16Ga., needed an upgrade to 14 Ga., so I did. Lastly, the only reason that the motor doesn't get a higher grade is that there is more vibation now with it installed, than before with the 3/4hp OEM motor, which incidently was made by Marathon in the USA. I'm not sure why, but it makes one of the steel panels on the base rattle rather loudly. I will deaden the sound somehow but its just another anoyance to deal with. The good news is that the vibration has no effect on the cutting ability/stability of the saw itself. It is still smooth. The price is great, especially because this is a Farm Duty motor. That's what the "FD" stands for in the part number.
 Fantastic Replacement Motor December 11, 2002
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have a Delta 14" Band Saw. During some extensive resawing I burned up the 3/4 HP motor. The warranty was expired (saw was 3 years old) so the only option was to either get the motor rewound or replaced. The repair was almost the cost of a new motor and the fact that the old one fried didn't make me too keen on a same motor replacement. I did some hunting around and saw that Amazon sold Baldor. I checked out a number of local suppliers and Amazon beat the price by close to [$$$]. That's not small change. My concern was fitting the motor into the enclosed base. I bought the motor,,it is fantastic...It was a nice fit, the old motor was wide open and caked inside with sawdust,,the Baldor is totally enclosed and fan cooled. It arrived in perfect shape and took about a half hour to install. It runs on 220 but I was able to use the same wiring, just change the plug. I have a Unisaw so the 220 was no problem. I am completely satisfied with the motor and with Amazon's price, I was able to double the horsepower get a tremendous increase in quality for the price of replacing the old motor.

1 1/2 no-nonsense horsepowers July 23, 2000

These are very good quality, rugged motors for anyone looking to upgrade or replace. A couple of notes: Color shown on webpage graphic is not what you're necessarily going to get. Also, this machine is best run on 230 volts; a 20 amp, 115 volt circuit isn't enough. I have one complaint, Baldor should look into packing these in styrofoam or something better than just a cardboard box. The first motor I received had been dropped on end somewhere during transit, and the fan enclosure was partially collapsed inward, rubbing against the fan. Amazon was real good about sending out a replacement ASAP.
