2.25 HP motor... what to do?

So I happend to "accidentally" carefully extract the motor and Its supporting electrical equipment from my moms treadmill. It is rated for 2.25 HP (1.3 continuous) and though it doesn't say, from reasurching I have deduced its free speed to be about 6,500-7,000rpm (I will measure this empirically soon). 95vdc 18A. What should I do with it?
