    There used to be an importer located out of Clarksburg WV named Enlon. I would guess that is what it is. They went under several years agol. There imports were very similar to Grizzly and others at the time, just a different color. They were blue.

    Enlon tools were like Grizzly, before Grizzly got big. They had a large showroom in SoCal, and sold a lot of equipment. As I remember, their dust collectors were made by Kofu, who made them for a lot of brands. If the motor runs good, go for it. Usually if the motors were going to go bad, they would do it right away. Their warehouse had a lot of new equipment that they removed motors from to replace ones that had gone bad. This was usually on shapers for some reason.
