| Won't shut off with switch. Can't seem to find one. Wonder if a universal switch will work? Prefer the paddle stop I can push with my knee. Thanks |

May be way too basic, but didn't those have that little yellow key deal that had to be inserted into the red switch button to turn it on/off? ------------- D17 Series 1 Allis B- 1939 Allis B- 1945 |

yes, any Heay Duty swtich will work... Mine is 220v and i used a double pole, single throw switch like a light switch.. but rated at 20 amps and twice as big.. Still fits in the standard 2 x 4 box.. ... Look on AMAZON and type in 220v switch and you can get light switch, paddle switch, similar to breaker handle, etc..
something like this...  ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |
