Re: Gear reduction for real Bull lathe.
|
Jerry I have something?lodged?in the back of my brain, that?I have read somewhere not to swap the wires. I am no electronics boff,and tend to leave PCB's etc well alone.If I don't see it move,I tend to leave it to experts in?their?field. Maybe you or
other members can spread more light on this. Also I never really got from the forum many months ago,a reasonable answer as to why when the switch on the control box is turned to reverse,? the Real Bull lathes run slower. Siegs I believe do not seem to have that problem. The idler set up is no show stopper at the moment,and fits into the total package nicely. John L Spain.

without having to have the machine set in reverse.For
some reason,Real Bull lathes have a common problem of
slower RPM when in reverse.
Why not just swap the + and - wires to the motor so it runs the
other way?
