I have a Powermatic 14" bandsaw, the on off switch just froze. It says
the switch is made by Furnas # 12BA106778. I have searched Powermatic
dealers with no luck. Any help appreciated.




Thanks,
Dave :confused:

You can order Powermatic parts direct from them. www.powermatic.com (http://www.powermatic.com)

Actually, I think I'd just get a light switch from the Borg and use that.

I'd go local too, but don't get just a light switch. Get a motor rated switch. It will cost more, but will be a double-pole switch with better contacts.

You could take the old one out and see if it's just clogged up with sawdust, too.
