Adam, thank you so much for helping me wire my rotary switch. This video is excellent and I was 90% sure I could wire it from that but that 10% was troubling me. The wiring schematic you responded with worked perfectly. What a blessing blessing to have someone who will share their time and knowledge to help others! Thanks again.
You 1000000% killed it!!! I’ve looked EVERYWHERE… and every “electrician” or salad made jack-leg has a video with goofy ass diagrams and off the wall jack-job videos not showing u a damn thing… this is PERFECT!!! I’m doing single phase 115v with 4 wire and looked EVERYWHERE…. You are the MAN!!
@@smalltownmachineshop6860 I do have a question… I bought a piece of junk 13.99 switch from Amazon from CHINA!!! 🤫 It’s this one: Paddsun Hight Quality 60A Drum Switch Will this work? Once I get it in I planned on contacting u and making sure I wire it correctly b/4 I burn up my motor or burn down my meat grinder motor! Haha
Adam is a fantastic guy. He helped me wire up a reversing switch on a Bodine motor. He nailed it and was the best. His machine shop is faraway from me but if you are up his way I would use his service all the time. GREAT GREAT GREAT !!!!!
Adam I cannot tell how grateful I am with your help and taking your time to help with wiring my motor and switch. Walking me through other steps when I could not get it going so the trouble shooting assistances you gave was so invaluable and without it, I would not been able to complete my project. Take care and Happy New Years!.
Thanks for this video .and thanks Adam for looking at my motor and drum switch and telling me how to hook it up.your diagram is excellent .and thanks for passing on knowledge .now I can start making chips on the layth
I think i need help. i have the same drum switch and a standard non-reversable motor i am using 110V that only has 3 connections on the motor,i would like to wire it to turn it off/on i have a 14 guage plug to drum switch wire and 12 guage 4 wire from motor to drum switch,would it be simpler to use a regular light switch instead of the drun switch? How do the wires go?
Hi, I have a milling machine I would like to wire for 220 volts. Currently the motor is wired for 110. It also has a drum switch for forward and reverse. The motor is a 2 Hp, dual voltage induction motor. Your video almost helped me, but seems to be a bit different set up. I have had two electricians out to help, but both of them were stumped. If you can help I would appreciate it! I can send you pictures of the motor plate, wiring diagram on the motor cover, terminal block on the motor, as well as the drum switch. I do understand the wiring diagram for the motor, but it doesn’t take in account the drum switch. Thanks!
Very good video, I have Furane company control drum switch . It has 6 termal R1143 they designs inside u can’t read 120v motor need a lot of help thanks Richard
I have production machine which works with electric single phase motor. My motor rotation is weak in forward direction and strong in reverse direction. Can you please help me out with that. Thank you 😊
I would need to see the wiring setup, on winches you typically run the wires from the sylinoids up to the switch and the main power just turns the motor on and off
Is it possible for me to use drum switch for a DC motor situation? I want to use a drum switch to operate a winch system on my trailer rather than a solenoid. The winch operates a heavy ramp/tail gate that goes up and down, so I want it to be able to go in both directions.
It is possible but due to the typically high amperage of dc voltage there is heavy arcing when switching and it tends to ruin the contact points fairly quickly
Great explanation thank you. Can I take you up on offer to help me understand the wiring on my particular 2hp 4p 220v 1phase motor? Not sure how to email you via youtube.
I have a 3hp baldor motor fdl3610tm..how do u wire that to a Dayton 2x443a drum switch..this is for a 5 wire motor leads plus thermal overload..the leads are 1 and 4
I have a split phase 1/3 hp motor, it has 2 lugs for power and a red and a black wire that can be swapped to run in reverse, 4 wires total. I need to wire this into a Furnas R1-A 6 pole drum switch. I’m using 120 volts. I used to think I was semi-intelligent but you model with all the wires gave me a figurative headache. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi , I ordered a cheap chinese drum switch and I have a ac Bodine geared motor 4 leads. I am as usual a bit confused. 110v. Im just not clicking with it.
@@smalltownmachineshop6860 Hi and Thank you that would be very kind of you indeed. Do you want me send it via email? I believe I saw an email in one of these threads .
How do u do it 115volts. I am using grid to start my 1/1/2 horse motor then switch to my 3000watt inverter. How will I connect that up the motor only is going clockwise not reversing.
Adam is there a way to not use a drum switch but have a separate on/off switch, and a simple toggle for forward/reverse in another place? I have a 220v. 2hp motor on my shaper and this would help prevent any confusion when operating it. Thanks

Hi Adam, i have a simular drum switch on my warn 220ac winch and it operating well. I wondering (i can't find it on internet) if it is posible to have beside the drum switch a secondairy remote operating by relays witch i can turn on by wireless. Any help is welcom Excuse me for bad english, its not my native language.
Hi, the relays i thought to use are normal 12v input and the switch contacts 10amp 230v, nc and no. But first i wondering if it is posible at all? The wireless control i have on my old winch is from teleradio(type T60aslI). On the remotecontrol i have 2 buttons onze for forward and one for reverse. On the winch side i have several relays. The switch contacts on the relays are normaly open and normaly close. I want to send a picture but i dont. see how. Thank you in afvangen
good morning, I came across your video and wated to see if you assist me in wiring up a motor and drum switch. I have the info, but I am having trouble with interpreting it.
Wrong! L1 and K2 are connect with 2 wires to the motor in both positions so they can be both on one terminal and the two wires that change will by themselves so you will only use 8 terminals.
Very true, there are a few ways to wire it, people who have little experience wiring seem to find it easier to follow if all the leads go to the switch so that’s why I tend to show it that way as it is easier for them.
great video .i have 240v motor with w1/v1/u1 and v2/u2/w2 wires on motor and 2x capacitor and switch with 1/L1 3/L2 5/L3 ON LEFT SIDE SWITCH AND ON RIGHT SIDE 2/T1 4/T2 6/T3 can u plz tell me how to wire it plz i can send me pictures if u send me your email thank you god bless

Tell me how you would wire up to a drum switch to use on a dc winch? Just negative and a positive lead (12VDC). Thanks
