Need someone to help with wiring a lathe. I have some house wire 12-2 wg and I want to do a temp wiring for lathe before I place it in it's resting spot. What I want to do is run wire to for-rev switch then motor for startup. The motor is a GE 5KC37NN6C 1/2 HP, it has 2 loose wires (red & black) assuming it came off the L posts since the nuts were missing. The tag on the motor shows low voltage hookup as shown on sketch. The drum switch on the sketch is showing contact position in different positions. I was confused on the sketch for the switch, but found out someone reversed handle and sketch did not match, but now it does. I think that is what gave me a brain fart on wiring today. I just wanted to see what everybody comes up with before I wire it up. I am going to add a on-off switch before the drum switch later on.
Thanks,
Paul
