Thread: Lathe electrical drawing
03/10/2020 07:16:40

Hi,

I am wondering if anyone can help me with an electrical drawing of a SAN YUEN SG- SAG 1800 Lathe??

Someone has been in and messed with the wiring, I have the lathe turning fwd and rev that's ok, but its the footswitch stop that I cannot get to work, if you press your foot on it it does stop but lift your foot it stars again but it should stay dead as an emergency stop.

The lathe is turned on by the handle, up is fwd and down is rev, now this is a latching switch, the lever is up and the contactor coil is energised (the contactors are not wired for self-latching) The footswitch is a momentary switch and does not latch like a mushroom emergency off switch, so there is the problem I need a circuit that will override the latching on switch with a non-latching foot off switch, there is a 3rd contactor in the box I think this was used for the foot off switch but the wires are all disconnected and I can't get my head around how it should be wired !!
