Manchester power hacksaw.

[God mode restorations]

Hi guys.
I picked up my Manchester power hacksaw today..needs a good clean up and sort out but it's all complete...now my electrical knowledge is limited but with four wires for a plug am I right in thinking it's 3 phase. It's not a problem because I can change the motor to single phase..just wanted to double check.

Yes 3 phase by the looks.

The motor plate (if it has one) should confirm this.

I did look for the motor plate but it's missing..i did think it would be 3 phase but that's ok.

A look inside the motor connection box should help then - if there's 3 connections then it's 3 phase for sure. From the pic above I'd be 99% sure it is anyway...

stick a 1/3 hp or a half hp single phase motor on it
