Help: Wiring PM 12x36 lathe, PM 9x32 mill
Hello all,
I have my new PM mill and lathe in the shop, and need some help with the wiring. I have a sub panel in the shop, with a 20 amp 240 volt breaker not being used for anything.
I bought a 12/3 cord, one female and two male 240 volt plugs. I plan on wiring the 12/3 cord into the sub panel, and then plugging in the lathe or the mill each time I use them.
The 932 has a wiring diagram, the lathe does not. the 932 mill has the three wires labeled, ground (green and yellow) brown, labeled L, and on the wiring diagram it shows the L brown wire going to the breaker so I assume that is the hot, and the grey wire labeled N, which I assume is the neutral. The lathe wires are not labeled, but are essentially the same colors, Brown, Black ( not grey ) and yellow green.
So what do I hook up to the breaker, just the brown, and how do you put one wire across the two halves of the breaker ? hew:
Thanks,
RH
