My neighbor bought a used HF 14" by 40" lathe with assortment of
accessories,
but no manual. Then, to make easier to move, they remove the motor. When
he
hooks it up again, the motor lets all the smoke out. The motor has been
rebuild
but there is another problem. With the motor disconnected, one position
of the
reversing switch causes all the external circuit breakers to blow.

This lathe has a lot more electrics then I would have expected. Without a
manual, it is gonna be tough. The model number on the data plate is
TD-12368.
With a date of 1994. HF has discontinued this model and offers no help.
Does
anyone have a manual to sell or loan? Or any ideas on a source?

Also, what is done to reverse the single phase AC motor?
