Installing a drum switch has been a very interesting adventure. There are many people who have attempted to show how it is done, but none have done it with the clarity it deserves. If you have the same motor as I do or one with the same wiring as these Dayton motors the wiring schematic I provide should provide the proper installation of your drum switch. You may have to switch the red and black wires to get the correct rotation for your application. Good luck.

Congratulations on completing one more important task!
Ron.
Next will be balancing the disc. Should be interesting.
I came close to buying Mike Cooper's book not only for the art but especially for the many mechanisms that are used.
To me, making things MISS is the fun part of any new design.
Jere
Thank you, I think this is finally the first video that shows the right way to do it!!
Hi Lloyd.
It took quite a while (looking at others explanations) to finely see that the white (common) wire did not have to be switched. At that point everything came clear as to how things worked.
Thanks. Jere
Good discussion and finish on the unit
It took a while to figure this one out.
Hi Jere,
Wiring is such a black art to many folks.
110, 220, single phase, 3 phase .. and all the colors, which you can't trust other people to have used the "right" wire color for standards. Fun stuff.
Now you can get that baby painted an into production. :)
Have fun with the mower.
Joe
Hey Joe.
Just seeing that the common wire went directly to the motor allowed for everything else to fall into place.
Since I used a blue wire for connecting terminal #2 on the drum switch, to the motor, we now have a standard.
You can thank me later. Jere
Hahahha. Suuure. ;)
I created a few standards in my day. I pity the mechanics who had to follow my work when putting Ford engines in Chev dump trucks and even Chev engines in Ford dump trucks. But ya do what the guy payin' ya says to do and with zero budget. ;)
But you know all about that sort of thing.
Yes, having one "key" starting point to a puzzle is important.
Have a good day...
Wiring in the back of a motor is such a pain for anything other than a straight forward hook up. No extra room for anything like you mentioned. When I have to do something like this I use individual conductors and run them through heat-shrink tubing rather than try to find multi-conductor cable with the number of conductors I need. If the conductors don't need much flex it works pretty good. Since your last video I used the washer beading dies trick and the refurbing aviation snips method. Both worked great. Plus I just bought a Vise Grips for your bullseye pick idea. Another project, like I don't have enough already!
Hi Ken.
I thought at first I was going to make my own wire harness, but it turned out to be easier to just run the blue wire along side of the 4 wire cord.
Maybe some of my bead roller mods would make your work go a little easier.
Thanks for watching. Jere
@@jerekirkpatrick2092 Hi Jere, I used the shaft adjusting mod but for the frame stiffening I used 2" square tubing on the front side and ran the shafts through it so the roller wouldn't get thicker, so it retains the same size profile. All that's left is a variable speed control but I haven't decided what I want to use yet. I used ideas from five different videos that I can think of.
@@kennethstaszak9990 That's how you make a machine yours. Make it your way.
Good stuff. Jere
Nice job Jere, you got er done.
One more project down. Lots to get done while the weather will allow.

@@jerekirkpatrick2092 I picked up a new torch for the shop at the Bash, Henrob, DHC 2000,,I love it.
Great info. Thanks, Sir
Hi Rex.
I hope this video helps others moor than all the ones I watched and got no information from.
Thanks for watching. Jere
Very good video, I have ha the same problem I wanted to pt a drum switch on my lathe,
Like u said no information on tube. I tried to get a hold o the manufacturer, no account.
I am going to c if ur way will work for me, thanks
Good luck. Like I mentioned, the common passing through the switch made the difference.
Jere
Hey, can you show me what contacts are engaged in both Forward and Reverse? Thanks
The diagram is shown at the start (0:10) of the video.
👍💪✌
Thanks. Jere
If you want to learn how to wire this switch? Forget it. Dude rambling about everything. Ya simply can't follow what the hell he's talking about.
