Hi all,
Have a Clausing / Colchester lathe that is new to me, and have not been able to get it to run yet.
It came in set up for 208 v / three phase - I verified the wiring at the motor for this voltage, and the control transformer is set properly and putting out 105 volts versus 120 volts placarded. Could this be the problem?
Anyway, checked voltage to momentary start switch, and its putting out voltage when pressed - but the voltage drags down to 88 volts and nothing happens (I would expect to hear a relay or contactor make)?
I've got the manual for this machine, but am having trouble getting a readable scan of the wiring diagram, but I'll try to attach it here.
Thanks for any help / suggestions.
