It looks like that manual may hold the secret, it seems there it a lever you need to pull at the same time as the start button to start the motor, I'll give it a go tomorrow!

I've tried the emergency stop but nothing changes, the only switch/button that seems to do anything is if you hold the green button the tool lamp comes on

Thanks @ljmorgan ! I've got some experience wiring in 3 phase workshop machinery but not a huge amount and feel that diagnosing whether or not the motor works is probably a bit out of my comfort zone. I'll checkout the site and see if anyone has any knowledge of this model. It sure is @Biggles567 , the whole of our workshop is also still wired up with old ceramic fuses which are a bit terrifying. Good shout @rj the only thing that makes me doubtful is that there seems to be no electrical humming coming from the lathe at all which I have come to expect from old 3 phase machines

I have an Elliott Omnispeed MS 30/2500 lathe in my workshop which I'm told hasn't worked for years. We checked all the electrics and it is wired in correct and live/receiving power (the lamp and fluid pump work) but the motor does nothing. Does anyone here work on lathes/know someone who might be able to offer some help getting it back up and running?

Are these still available?
