We can't list every bandsaw ever made. Here's how to check compatibility yourself in three quick steps before you order.
Look up your motor's specification — it's on the motor label, in your owner's manual, or on the manufacturer's website. You're looking for the frame standard. The NOVA DVR motor is compatible with:
If either standard is listed, the bolt pattern will align and the upgrade will mount correctly.
Remove the access cover and measure the outer diameter of the drive pulley — the pulley on the motor shaft. This kit is designed for bandsaws with a 2.5" drive pulley.
If your drive pulley measures something other than 2.5", contact our support team before ordering.
With the access cover off, measure the distance from the rear face of your drive pulley to the inner rear wall of the cabinet. This confirms the DVR motor will fit within your cabinet depth without obstruction.
If you have an unusual cabinet configuration or are unsure about your measurement, contact our support team before ordering.
