Good eye.
I noticed that as well when I first opened up the motor. The rest of
the wiring was rotten as can be, so one assumes that the previous owner
used what he had at hand to rewire the motor.
When I figure out how to control the damned thing...seperate motor on
the table as well.....Ill rewire the entire thing to code. Those two
cables are not..not hooked to anything at the moment, simply dangling.
Still trying to figure out how to control the critter.
I need:
Spindle forward/reverse. This also controls table direction.
(Gear driven table highspeed retract in all 3 axis)
Spindle High/Low
Power On/Off.
Notice the control panel in photo 16.

I should mention that in my real daytime job as an independant machine
tool tech...I run across countless cases of 3ph cords being made out of
common 3 wire cable...black/white/green. Not right, not code, but
still emensely common. And has been for many years. Shrug.

So, do the Eyetalyuns hire good looking women in short skirts to run
their mills? Floor-level is an assinine position for that CP.

One would hope so!
Ive always considered a corner to be a good place for most mills. Using
that one in a corner would be a head bumping nightmare.

That sort of thing will get some one else killed and is criminal. Wiring a shotgun to the
front door is a slightly less serious offense imho.

Yet its common as dirt, wide spread and the numbers of fatalities is
very very small.
But..its still quite unwise.

Yes, I've seen it. I still want whoever did it to live a life of flipping burgers rather
than routing electrons.

Ok.
It's handy to have rolls of vinyl tape in different colours around.

I've seen it most often when 14/3 sjo was used for control cable to two hand controls on a
pedistal. Green was used for power common, white and black were used to go to the NC and
NO contacts on Reese buttons in series. Seems to happen where the only flexible cable in
the shop in stock is for making extension cords.

>It's handy to have rolls of vinyl tape in different colours around.
That only counts when you do the deed, then you tape it up properly
- but even then it's considered Temporary. You order 10-4 SO cable
and the proper 4-pin Twistlock cord caps and receptacles for each
tool, so it has a real ground connection.
If I ran around taping up every cable like that when I was at a
customer's for a repair job, I could easily waste days at it.
And they usually don't want to pay for it either, amazing how many
foolish people have the reins of the checkbook. I sometimes toss the
tape job in for free when I touch the tool under the "it's the right
thing to do, and nobody else is gonna do it" doctrine.
Besides, if it goes chassis hot I might be the first one to touch it
accidentally. And trust me, that is never a fun feeling.

I was down in a shop in Tustin a few years back, checking out a Smith
Lehman lathe...8" spindle bore. I was laying on my back on a concrete
floor, meter in hand checking something, and reached up and grabbed the
machine to pull myself up..and ZAPPPPPP!
There I was, doing a pretty good imitation of a marlin on 200 lb test
and one of the guys came over and kicked my arm hard enough to break my
grip.
The owner came running over about the same time, busted into a hard
sweat.
After laying there a minute or two, getting the ol heart beat back to
somewhere close to normal...I told him it really needed a decent ground,
after I found out where the short to machine was, and that plastic
really didnt make good machine feet insulators if he didnt have a good
ground. I killed power, found the problem, repaired it, installed a
good ground (he was using 3 wire instead of 4 wire) and installed a new
cable up to the disconnect on the wall. And a good ground.
One of the operators commented...."ya know...I tot I vas feeling a
little tingle ven I cranked da levers..but only ven I vor my going home
shoes (leather soles)"
Crom but I hate cheap bastards.

Glad to hear that you survived it. So, what's the standard upcharge
for being electrocuted by your client? An extra day's work?

Shrug..that was in the Good Times..so I only charged him for the extra
hour or so that it took, plus cost of materials.
Today..that would cost him another 5 hours

The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.
