"bunch of wires"??? how many? does the motor have brushes? does it have a
magnet?
harbor freight motor went "belly up" - symptoms? usually it's a capacitor
or dust making the start switch inop - did you check these things? it is
much easier to fix than replace

Hi,
The motor on my HF 4 x 36 belt sander went belly up after only about 6
or 8 years. Sheesh. I contacted HF for a new one and it is going to be
40-bucks plus shipping and 12 to 15 week wait. sigh
I was scrounging around under the benches and found one of the
Treadmill motors and controllers that Surplus Center used to sell.
Problem is I have a bunch of wires hanging out of the motor and no
idea who goes where.
I checked the dropbox and there is a schematic for the controller but
nothing for the wires to the motor.
Can anyone please help me with how to wire this up.
Thanks guys.
Dave
