Stoner,
You can just glue the plastic part back together with CA glue. Otherwise you'll probably have to contact Delta or a Delta service center. Try this page for starters...

After killing three of the dang things I bought a 20 amp light switch and mounted it in the box. Works perfect.
mine also failed, i had electician put switch for 3 hp industrial electric motor on it, brand does not matter just do not waste time replacing with a "waiting to fail switch"Quote:

Thanks guys I was wondering if the switch could be substituted for a switch that I could purchase from Lowes or Home Depot. The lathe is not that old and it broke when I was turning the machine on. I like the lathe but the switch is a weak spot. Thanks again. Stoner
Stoner,
If you really want the switch, I have one, new in the bag sitting on a shelf. The heavy duty switch that I bought at the borg has lasted me three years. The factory switch lasted 1..

Put on a different switch and don't waste your time with a delta switch.
I found on the internet that Delta had a warranty repair shop just down the street from work. Rode down there with the old switch and was able to install a new switch at the cash register. He said Delta does have a problem with switches and he always carries a few in his inventory for that reason. The new switch cost $5.99. I was going to go to Lowes or Home Depot and pick up a heavy-duty switch and modify the lathe a little bit but replacing the Delta switch I am back in business tonight. I would like to thank the board members for their help and suggestions. Next time if I am not in the middle of a project I would put a heavier switch on the lathe.
