Hight Quality 60A Drum Switch Forward/Off/Reverse Motor Control RainProof Reversing

This is a wonderful replacement for our machine that is rather old, the old one bit the dust and this works just like the old one did .

A more clear wiring diagram and basic instructions would have been nice, but I figured it out. I needed to wire a reversible switch to an AC motor that had the six wire configuration - 2 wires need to be alternated to different wire bundles. The easiest way I could figure was running 2 extension cord lines to the switch from the motor. Black and white wires used as alternating switched wires, then I used the green wire as the power circuit. Worked like a charm. Pic shown for others who may have the same need.

This switch is well built. However it would not work for my application. The price is low enough I will not return it. I may find another use for it one day. A internal wiring diagram in the description would have been useful.

I like that it is easy to figure out but instructions would have been great. I attached a photo of the diagram I mapped out. Please note that you only need to use the numbered lugs. The ones that are not numbered are connected to the numbered ones next to them. If you are using this on a DC system you only need the positive and negative. Otherwise use the N1 and N2 for neutral on an AC system.

120 v, reversing motor for lathe The first problem is The directions all in Chinese. Attached is a translation. Second is that there is not enough room for #10 wire, forget about wiring for 60 amps. I had to crisscross the wires over the drum to get them to fit, not the best way. And the little grommets are a joke. For proper wiring, you need cable clamps but it is still a very tight fit. Once wired, the switch works fine
