Michell Gyro Mk II AC or DC?


Gents,

I have recently purchased a new Michell Gyro SE. I know that the Pabst AC motor that they used to use has now been replaced by a DC motor from another manufacturer. Does anyone know how to identify which motor is which by sight? I was thinking of getting a PLC that works with AC synchronous motors -- obviously a bad idea if I have the newer DC motor. Thanks in advance for any help.

Also, I have heard of a clear aftermarket belt for this 'table does anyone know who makes it or where it can be purchased?

Alan,
I have a stock Gyro SE DC Motor. So is this "upgrade" a new motor and power supply??? Does it come with new belts???

My unit is a plug into a transformer which is 5x2x2 and then a 4 foot cable up to the motor (a disconnecting cable coupler is in between motor and xformer).
