I have about decided to make up an 'order' list and call CS. I do not know what I will do with this 'second' power station, but I would like to get it back to 'normal'.
Let me guess - you
will attempt to repair the broken one!

I can turn it on and off with the switch as it is. I'll not spend that kind of money for a new switch until this one fails. I may buy a switch earlier than that if I have a pending order (and money) but it won't get installed until this one fails completely.
I might even glue the part in place if that will keep the thing running.

Do understand the speed and power limitations.
3/4 hp with an 850 to 3850 rpm range.
The planer power stand has a 1 3/4 hp motor and is 'pulleyed' so the planer head exceeds 5000 rpm.
I find it lacking when powering the jointer(slow).
For most other spt's it works quite well. 'They' do not require as much hp.
Also understand it weighs 73 #.
So unless a southeastern trip is in yer future, it ain't gonna happen.

I see, it would be great for the beltsander. I'm curious what shipping would cost. I will check at work tomorrow 73lb- Kent to Boi
