I use a 2 speed electric motor on my 4 frame extractor. It was
originally hand cranked, but had an adapter for a motor when we got it,
used.
I obtained a 2 speed motor from an old washing machine, use a single-
pole double- throw switch ( regular 2-way light switch) to select the
high-low speed connections. I start out on low speed with the full
 frames which gives me better control of speed with the friction clutch
(Screw it tighter to go faster) and then up to full  speed to finish out.
Might help someone.
