Need help with HF 7x10 Wiring.

[Mohrenberg]

I'm going to apologize in advance as I could not find the right section to post this problem.
I have the HF 7x10 mini-lathe and recently disassembled it because the Low gear got eaten away because they are made of plastic. Anyways, while reassembling it i discovered that the main white and black plugs coming from the 110V AC plug-in have become disconnected. I cannot find out where they belong and I am hesitant to charge plugging them into things as I do not want to fry my circuit board.

I have tried looking for pictures and cannot find any.

There are only 4 wires with plugs on the end, 2 white and 2 black, and one of the black and white are from the motor, the two that are unplugged come directly from the 110V ac plugin.

Anyone where they plug in to or have pictures?

I have not yet taken apart my 7x10 lathe controller, but if I'm not mistaken, the motor controller on the mini lathe is the same as the motor controller on the Sieg X2 mini mill.

If that is the case, you might want to take a look at the following document that has schematics and pictures:

Hi Mohrenberg

if its any thing like the C2 lathe I have

the connectors on the motor wires are smaller and push onto the centre two terminals on the forward reverse switch

( DC out , PCB terminals 1 and 2 connects via the forward / reverse switch
to the motor )

the switched mains is connected to terminals 3 and 4 on the PCB

( by the way , I re aranged the wiring on my lathe so the switched live goes to terminal 3 via the fuse )



for your lathe does this link help ?
