Well, Its me again the electrical hazard and nightmare on 2 feet. I need to get this straight in my head I have only last week finally got my Burke #4 motorized. The Burke had a Lima gear motor that would not shift to any gear it only ran at 587 RPMs. I changed it out with a 2 HP Dayton AC induction motor model # 6K393K single phase 1740 RPMs 115/208-230 volt.
I am putting a drum switch to the motor for forward and reverse HOWEVER the motor states that it needs to have T3 and T8 wires switched for CCW rotation. Does that mean the motor will only run in CCW direction and no longer function in CW rotation ?? WILL the drum switch Dayton 2X440A model now be the factor for changing rotation, or do I have to constantly change these wire manually back and forth as needed.?
As soon as I get some answers to this question I'll probably need advise with the wiring of the drum switch. But thats another issue.
As always Thanks so much for any and all assistance with this problem, all advise is greatly
appreciated.
regards to all and Merry Christmas to all.
