Motor Recommendations
The Nova 3000 can be purchased with or without a motor. In the USA, the 1HP AC Motor is included with
the lathe, in accordance with the recommendations outlined below. However, in most markets, the motor is
an optional extra. If you are providing your own motor, adhere to the recommendations below. A variable
speed DC motor may also be used; recommendations are similar to those for AC motors. Motors are
flange face mount.
