Boxford TCL 125

[John11668]

Hi folks
Machine arrived today so couldn,t wait to plug in and see what works.
Circuit breaker was tripped so pressed the button and Big bang . Workshop electrics all tripped too.
opened up Explored a bit , tried again , and there was a big flash behind the fan. Supply to fan was lying loose on the fan casing so a dead short .
Sorted that and then switched on again. and presto! Power, fan running , lights on the panel , spindle starts and runs , speed can be increased/ reduced . Stops as required.
Try rev button, starts it up again but in in forward direction so am I right in presuming reversing relay is not working??

And doesnt seem to want to jog x or z .
Will try to upload some pics !






and


Am a bit concerned about the snipped off wiring at the spindle motor but from the previous diagram it looks like only two wires required

Wondring what the missing fuse does? And the little 12v indian gismo which looks like the meece have been chewing

5v and 12 V lights showing so something is promising

I have a BOB and a serial cable so now wondering where to find the appropriate connections to feed the drivers .

Thanks in advance to those who can point me in the right direction
