If you dont care about the safety feature of a mag switch then you can go with something like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005W17FRS/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have one on my Unisaw. Its still wired into the original mag starter but since its an on-off switch and not a momentary button (like it originally had), the safety feature is rendered useless. Didn't bother me personally

EDIT: formatting
Yeah, thanks for confirming. I've heard that before... I have a friend who has never shut his down (for many years). I guess they're made to run all the time. I planned on putting one of these on the right side of my lathe mounted to the lathe itself: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005W17FRS/ref=s9u_simh_gw_i1
I'd hate to have a saw start spinning if I leaned over the table and hit the pedal accidentally, or at any point really.
I use a paddle switch like this:

It looks like with a bit of cleaning and replacing the start stop button with a new start/stop paddle switch you will be all set.
The replacement switch is cheap too: $17 http://www.amazon.com/Woodstock-D4151-220-Volt-Paddle-Switch/dp/B005W17FRS
emergency stop
Mine was messed up when I purchased my unisaw. I'm pretty elecricaly savvy, and after looking into all the parts I needed, contactors, relays, flux capacitors, etc. I just canned it in favor of one of these
Simple, cheap and it works well. You just have to remember, if the power goes out, don't sit on the blade until the power comes back on--or just hit the off switch.
