[Woodcarver] Reversing Motor Direction

[dick carter]

Some motors have other wires, attached to the terminal within the
motor & these are for changing the voltage of the supply voltage.
All of the information for this is on the data plate.Dick CarterIn the Manadnock area of NHrhc511 at hotmail.comPlease check-out my stuff at:http://www.picturetrail.com/cartersstuff

Brian,
 
Besides the red and black wires, are there any other wires coming from the motor and what colors are they?
 

Keep on Carvin'

I have  tried to wire a double pole,double throw switch to a 1/4 horse motor I use to drive a  1x42 " belt  used to sharpen my carving tools . I have followed the instructions that I got when I bought the switch however the motor still does not reverse . Obviously I am missing something ---has anyone wired such a switch .

 

Thanks 

 

Brian
