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

Spain.
Some brush type motors are built with the brushes offset to make
them run better in forward.? I haven't taken my motor apart but from
what I gather the typical Seig motor has centered brushes and other
than a short wear-in they don't care which way they go.
As to some running slower in reverse, see above to protect some
motors.? Also, they might do that since you're probably just backing
up between threading cuts.
