    Default Spindle rotation of RapidTurn

    I'm in the process of installing a RapidTurn on my 770 and the spindle rotates on the wrong direction.

    The mill spindle operates in the correct direction it's just the RapidTurn spindle that's a problem.

    Is the solution as simple as swapping the U and V wires at the RapidTurn junction box? I know that's Tormachs direction for improper rotation of the mill spindle. Their support is closed today so I thought I'd ask here for advice.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    With any 3-phase motor, swapping ANY two wires will reverse rotation.

    If I remember correctly this is addressed in the RapidTurn manual in the assembly section.
