I have the G1033X and I keep frying start caps, as apparently taking off 1/16 at 20" is more than the 5hp can handle. It slows the motor down and than the cent switch kicks in and poof...... Anyways I'm thinking about dropping in a 7.5 motor, but than I'm thinking why not just upgrade to a 24"? I've been keeping my eye out locally for a older used planer but havent snagged anything yet, as I haven't been that serious until now, as I'm just fed up of babying the planer. Anyways what's your opinion? Drop a 3phs 7.5 in or just wait until i can find a bigger used one?
