Re: Capacitor questions
Frank,
On the active switch:
The black mill motor wire is connected to the same row as the yellow jumper wire
The white mill motor wire and the nms C wire are on the same row as what would be the green jumper wire (the wire color is actually blue as blue is substituted for green on the jumper wires on the active switch).
At this point, the only jumper wires that I cannot readily see are the ones on the back of the active switch. All the jumpers on the front of the active switch exactly match the spare switch as far as connecting identical terminals.

Hi Jim The photos helped. If you look close you will see they reversed the Black and white in the two drawings. As I said it will not make a difference. The drawing on Page 18 shows the black (V) on top but those are the contacts away from the push buttons so so on page 19 that contact should be on the bottom. so the dummies didn't wire the switch on page 19 the same way the show on page 18. However the lathe motor (so far) on page 19 is the same as 18. I'm double checking everything but so far it looks good. But that's the spare switch. Now you will have to compare the connections on the spare to how the connections are made on the machine switch. Right now the most important thing is that the Capacitor on the Mill motor be connected to the white wire. I hope the wire colors are correct!!
There are yellow and green wires on that Mill Motor switch. Tell me the connections of the motor with respect to the green and yellow wires.
