Thank you for all the replies. I should have been a bit more clear with what I want to do. I bought a PW 66TA with a 5 HP three phase motor that I want to convert to single phase. Right now I'm looking to get a convertor instead of changing the motor out. I would have to spend more on a motor than I paid for the saw. I've heard that there will be some power lost but that doesn't concern me being it's 5 HP. The saw is in excellent condition and came with a Powermatic mobile base, 52" rails and a baldor motor. So, would I need to get a new magnetic switch or can the existing one be reused?
Thanks in advance again
Mike
