This motor came with a Boise-Crane 6" jointer. The motor is in great shape, It started up good, bearings are in great shape. It came with a 4 wire set-up that can be wired for 115 volts or 230 volts, but has no ground wire. It is an open type motor. What I found interesting was that it has a part of the back frame that is connected to a spring that allows you to swing open the frame to clean the inside, very cool! It is a tank, very heavy and quite large but well made.
