drop.
HOOK-UP DIAGRAMS
WARNING:
DO NOT REVERSE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE BATTERY LEADS. THIS WILL DAMAGE THE CONTROL.
TO CHANGE MOTOR DIRECTION, INTERCHANGE THE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE ARMATURE LEADS.
Refer to the wiring diagrams below for proper connection of DC Voltage, Armature, and Speedpot wiring to the control.
CAUTION !! TURN POWER OFF WHILE MAKING CONNECTIONS.
To properly adjust the CURRENT LIMIT setting, a DC ammeter should be placed in series with the armature line. This meter
can be removed after the control is adjusted.
