dpcdHelp Needed on Electrical Wiring
I hate electricity; or at least some aspects of it. My band saw wiring got pulled out of the motor box and I have no idea how to put it back. If a good electrician can help me, I would appreciated it.
Here is what I have;
Red, black and green wires coming from the 110 volt plug.
Red and black wires going into the cut off switch.
Red, black white and yellow wires going into the motor.
The only thing I know is that the green wires are grounded and the one from the switch is still connected to the motor body.
Help.

Duane Wiebe (CG&R)I would think black, white and green in a 110 set up. Are you certain you have 110 input? Do you have a volt meter? Look at the motor, it should tell you HP, voltage , phase, etc
BTW, your pkg is on it's way

dpcdI been plugging it into 110 volts for 30 years; so it is definitely 110.
Thanks for the update. too.
Yes I have a volt meter.
It's an Enco.
No, and no I can't find the wiring diagram on the internet.

dpcdI have bare wires and 3 plastic wire nuts. The green wires have ring terminals so I know they go to ground.

J_ZolaConnection on the motor.
Black and yellow to one side of the 110
Red and white to the other side of the 110
The 110 is coming from the switch.
Pictures would help, dam photobucket.

LapidaryI don't think you are too far from me, if you and Dave can't get it fixed let me know.

dpcdAR guys are the best on any forum; no question about it.
Dave told me how to wire up back up, (seemed easy for him (he used to teach it) but electrons are like rocket surgery to me). Got it wired back up and motor put back on; runs better than ever.
Thanks to all who helped.
Case closed. (The pulley cover I mean)
