I picked up my lathe last week. A nice 13" south bend. It came wired for 480 so I rewired it at the motor for 240. Pretty simple...there are 3 wires coming from the motor to the panel and into a control box. They go into terminals marked t1 t2 t3. Since I'm going to use a vfd I'm thinking I will be unhooking t1t2t3 and wiring them direct to the wires coming from the output side of the vfd. This will eliminate the components in that box. All my controls estop, speed pot, for/rev will be wired to the vfd. Is this correct?
