Yes, the jog is part of the switch there was no extra wiring for it.
I would like the interlock switches to work though but don't know the connection in the inverter for it.

Often you can just wire them in series with the start button.
It does depend on whether the start stop functions are latched though, and that is usually managed in the configuration settings. Do you have a copy of the user manual?

The problem with the latching inputs, of course, is that if you break an interlock with the machine running, it will not stop. That's why you need to refer to the manual to see if there is another way to do this. It may be that this isn't a worry for you though. It could be done with a couple of small relays if necessary.
Hi Decca,
I know I'm a bit late (7 years), but I've just purchased a Boxford lathe very similar with yours with the same issue of it being a three phase supply.
I've got a Huan Yang inverter on the way, but not entirely sure on how to wire it up when it arrives, and whether I'm able to run it with the current control buttons, or would I need to replace them for new 7 pin on/off buttons similar to yous.
Thanks
