HF 44991 X2 Mini Mill Motor Wiring?

Hello Guy's

I just assembled my HF 44991 X2 mill to a CNC version. I was wondering if anyone knows the motor wiring inside the box for the speed control? I misplaced the notes I had on that one. A picture of inside that box would be perfect.

Thanks
Bill

Ok,

All three of the blue wires go to the Pot, #1 being on the slow end and #3 being the fastest.

Wire #5 goes to the Amber Fault Light
Wire #4 goes to the lower fuse connector
- Upper fuse connector goes to Lower Left E-Stop Connector
Wire #3 goes to upper left E-Stop Connector

Connectors:
White to White
Green to Green
Black to Black

As for Wire #1 & 2, I'm not sure, although I believe that they both go to the E-Stop so I suppose it doesn't matter.

Hope that helped. It's a pain in the rear. I lengthened my wires and disconnected my speed control box from the mill all together. When it was over and reconnected I think the whole ordeal took a couple of weeks off my life.

Hi Dang,

Thanks, If you could ... please check these wires that connect to each other with plugs. I marked their location in your picture.

Thanks
Bill

Those would be the wires marked #1 & 2 that connect from the board, directly to the motor. I told ya, this is difficult. Last time I thought they connected to the E-Stop. Anyway, they should connect to the similarly colored wires with the sleeved male/female connectors and just run right out the other, skinnier tube to the motor.
I hope that was correct.

*If the wires aren't similarly colored, then hit them with a multimeter to determine which of them is Negative or Positive.
#1 is negative.
#2 is positive.
The other, (green) is ground.
