Help needed in the UK

Post by Bushell5 »

Hello hoping someone can help a member in the UK.
My MK5 has stoped working and I have traced the issue to the starter relay. It’s fitted with a Zettler AZ2100-1A-110DE but I can’t seem to find one over here.
Does anyone know of an equivalent or other workable options.

Thanks.

Maybe confused?? The Shopsmith Mark V does not utilize a starter relay BUT the Shopsmith Crafters Station does.

If you have the Crafters Station - the relay that mine uses is an NTE Electronics, R55-11A20-120F.

I have a spec sheet (somewhere). When (if) I can locate it, I will append it to this post.

I hope this helps.

Actually there are some versions of Mark V motors that use external motor start relays.

They connect the start windings then open. I think they were GE relays.

Mounted on the rear end cap of GE motors.

I am not familiar with the 'zettler'(yet).

Have you considered disassembling it to ascertain why/if it is not functioning correctly?

The only thing I have found over here is a PC Board mount relay. Not a start relay and pc board mount does not make sense.

This is a good example where pix are a major aid in correctly identifying not only what a problem might be, but also what is it we are concerned with.

Definitely a starter relay screwed to the inside of the headstock.
It’s a sealed unit with 3 lugs - live and neutral going into the motor, a black “hot’ wire going to the start switch.
Power is going to the relay but nothing out of it.
Zettler was factory fitted as original - I assume because it’s an export Mk V running on 240 volts.

Thanks but the problem with that site is that you need to order a minimum quantity of 500 units.
But that is the beast I’m looking for.

Have you tried contacting American Zettler directly? Maybe they can point you to a distributor who sells just one. Or cross reference it to another model that Amazon or eBay sellers carry.
