I need someone help in identifying the start capacitor for my saw. This
saw 113.29903 was given to me by a friend. The top surface was very
rusty and the parts in need of a lot of cleaning and adjustment. I have
the saw back in working order but the motor needs a start capacitor. The
capacitor was thrown away along time ago. Also would anyone know the age
of this saw.
Motor Emerson KS55FN-349
1hp 115v 3450rpm
Thanks Steve


Steve,

Start caps are not critical if you err on the large side. I'd just browse
a catalog and compare similar HP motors and see what they're using. Not
enough could make it hard to start but too much is no big deal.
