Performax 12-1/2 in. planer, model 240-3749. How can I get a replacement motor?
I couldn't find an illustration of the planer so don't know whether it is a compact bench jointer, a portable thicknesser or a workshop planer/thicknesser where any suitable motor can easily be adapted to fit, often representing large savings over the machine manufacturer's prices.
Replacement motors and motor parts for integrated machinery often become obsolete quickly or are available but are priced not to sell and an otherwise good machine has to be replaced.
There are many companies around the world offering small motor rewinds, usually at prices far less than a replacement motor, offering the chance to make an otherwise obsolete tool useful again.
