[QUOTE="mygoggie, post: 990024, member: 18916"] Man, I am way behind on my postings here vs the progress on the lathe. Let me jot down some more if my fun .. Yes, the motor. It is a three phase (380VAC) 2,2kW motor. [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/44zd4LLX/IMG-20200508-102947.jpg[/IMG] The motor is mounted on a plate that swivels on a bar and is locked into position by two bolts, one on either side of the plate. [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/wjYr2txh/IMG_20200516_095851.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/h4CYmg3s/IMG_20200508_125635.jpg[/IMG] The left hand side's bolt (yes, LH looking from the front of the lathe) was missing. This is on the tension side of the plate, so this will mean that the belts were only tensioned under the weight of the motor! [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/KzpVDJ4z/IMG_20200516_095857.jpg[/IMG] The connector panel. The wires from the switches to these pins were mixed and not according to the phase numbers as on the motor's wires. [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/Y0SyPyjQ/IMG_20200508_125618.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/kXpL09QG/IMG-20200508-121533.jpg[/IMG] I removed all the wires, the spiral conduits and fittings. For now the motor can sit and watch me work. It will get it's turn to be fixed. Onto getting the V-belts off. [/QUOTE]
