Default Add Motor to Grape Crusher

Hi all,

I have a "regular" manual grape crusher that needs a good cleaning,
painting and adjustment in order to handle the wine making this
September. I am also thinking of adding a small motor to it, since
last year we made about 300 L of different types of wine (CS, Zin,
Muscat) - big family...

I'm quite handy with woodworking and DIY projects, but I'm at a loss
choosing a motor and a modality of installation: "direct drive", a
system of pulleys?!??

Did anyone of you try doing this? I can send pics of my crusher, if it
helps.

Many thanks, Ben
