Could anyone advise what i need to complete my lathe motor project.
I have a 1.75 HP 240v DC motor which i plan to retrofit onto my lathe.
Manged to find a cheap new old stock KB electronics KB 240D motor controller.
Unfortunately it does not have the optional forward / reverse switch fitted.
Did a quick search and they are priced at £65.00 !! (For a toggle switch, and a 10ohm 50Watt resistor ??)
Extracts from an old and new user manual (switch 1 & 2) shows the pin outs ?
Also enclosed pictures of physical switch from website.
Any idea what switch i need to buy, and how to wire it. I dare not take my usual approach of the trial and error method for fear of the whole lot going up in smoke.
