If that is the FL86 STH80-4208B I have the same motor and drive. To wire parallel you will need to connect the:

RED + BLUE A+
YELLOW +BLACK A-

WHITE + BROWN B+
ORANGE + GREEN B-

Hi John,

Thanks for the speedy answer, the model number on my steppers is FL86 STH80-4208 A-H, not sure what the A-H is, would it be ok to try this or could i damage the drive's. I cant see there would be much difference between them but you never know! also could i ask how do you find this motor and drive combo, what amps are you running and what input vdc are you running. once again thanks for the reply.
