Hi I have a bench grinder that I converted for polishing. Recently the thing
has lost power when I push against the polishing mop and I can even stop it
rotating if I grab hold, can anyone loll me whats up. Ive opened it up
and had a look, no debris or broken parts, no bearing wobble. Is it the
capacitor or is it toast?


It could..could be the capacitor..which typically is only used for
starting if there is a single cap. Clean up the contacts and check the
movement of your centrifugal starting switch..which it may..may have.

If both are ok..you have a bad winding.
