Right !
so taking things one at a time .
I operate the stop / fwd / reverse buttons on the panel
Forward and reverse buttons both cause the spindle to operate, but both in forward direction. Both will allow speeding up of the rotation by pressing a number of times , or indeed by holding down . Regardless of whether I press forward or reverse the forward light comes on .
If I then move over the relay switch then the spindle indeed reverses, but all the switches operate as above ie both switches start the reverse motion and still it is the forward light comes on.!
I have tried been given the number of the suppliers "boxford engineer" and have tried to make contact but not holding out much hope
Not that I expect much technical help here . But he is the guy who was supposed to have proved that all the motions were operable.
Looking at the diagram you posted Inee it looks as if operation of RL3 should reverse the direction, and I presume this should happen on operation of the reverse button. I presume the switch is selecting the direction of the static position. If the reverse button starts and accelerates the motion then my logic is telling me that the button is functioning so could it be that the relay itself may not be changing over .
Or maybe I am getting beyond myself here ?? Dont be afraid to tell me if I am.
As you say the missing fuse supplies what looks to me like a bridge rectifier, purely due to its simarlarity in layout to those I see on vintage motor bikes
I could maybe sketch the connections to thatLast edited by John11668; 08-09-2020 at 12:07 PM.
