Bandsaw Microswitch Problems HELP

[powderblast]

Hi hope everyone is well,

I have had some time off from using my equipment and have gone to use the bandsaw today and have it not start up, i traced it down to a microswitch which turns the bandsaw off when in the bottom position (at the end of a cut).

I was hoping with a quick search i could source a replacement online but i cannot appear to get one anywhere, Has anyone got any ideas where i can get one from thanks.

Put one of these at the correct height under the body of the saw

It won't switch the saw off, but someone will run to switch it off.

Just splice the wires together - the switch on mine hasn't worked for years. Just hit the stop button when finished

Managed to find a similar switch for £50, crazy price so ended up just getting one of amazon, should do the trick and get it up and running again

nothing special about them, for future reference, Telemecanique / Schneider are the industry standard and probably less than £30 for that style roller plunger
