I looked on the net but cannot find a wiring diagram. I wonder ifanyone has the same sander or wiring diagram for the box. I attach a photo ofthe box.

Many thanks to anyone that can help.

Steve I think it might help if you post some good pictures of the inside of the box and say if it is 3 phase or single.

Steve,
I have had a good search of t'interweb, but nothing yet. You could try contacting Axminster. When I had a broken part on my mini lathe , they were more than helpful and tracked down the part for me. Maybe they have some tech manual in their archive.
Cheers,
Rob

Steve if he's unsure and you don't want to risk starting it then remove Red blk wires and test the output with meter. It should change voltage with each speed position.

Hi Jazz

Cheers very much mate for the reply it sounds like a plan. I really do wish they took a photo before the job was started!

Many thanks

Steve
