I bet that motor is not specific to just one purpose. There are probably more out there in other applications. I'd remove the motor and and dig a little deeper. There should be specs for rpms, shaft rotation, shaft diameter, amps, voltage frame, somewhere for the grinder on the web.
I’ve taken off the end plate and can’t find any identification, it’s a 5/8 d shaft on the fan side the drive side has a gear that I can’t figure out how to remove. Here are some pictures of the strange end plate that I’ve removed the gear reduction from so you can see the drive gear And the physical size.

Yessir this is what it looks like
The capacitor may be bad. If that’s not it it could be a centrifugal switch stuck open and motor is trying to start on just main windings. If it’s stuck shut it keeps the start winding engaged which if continued try of use will eventually burn out a winding. I can’t tell if yours has the switch or not by the pics. Some motors don’t have a c switch and keep the start winding in the circuit essentially making it a 2 phase motor. Have the cap checked.
