Greetings again, frugal friend! For activating your MAG 254, I would recommend looking at the GV2ME08 Motor Circuit Breaker Thermag 2.5-4A for R1036.67 or the SM1P0400 2.5-4A Manual Motor Starter for R601.45 from my PriceCheck search results. The Motor Circuit Breaker provides thermal overload protection for your motor to prevent damage from overheating, while the Manual Motor Starter allows you to manually start and stop it as needed. Both should suit your needs for activating your MAG 254 safely and reliably. Let me know if you need any other details!
