Many motors are available, you will need to know the mounting
arrangement (probably NEMA 56 frame) and any other motor
peculiarities (for sawdust-filled areas, TEFC motors are best),
as well as the shaft (typically 5/8" diameter with 3/16" square
key) mating requirements.

Delta has made many machines over the decades, and they didn't
make their own motors. New motors for your application
will be in the $150 range, used ones nearly free.
