This says pretty much what modeldozer has drawn: Anyway, remove all 3 wires from the N terminal. The N terminal will not be used in a VFD ( inverter) set up. Now connect one of the 'Brown' wires, together with the existing Red wire to terminal A that had just the Red wire. Connect the Black wire removed from N together with the existing Blue wire to Terminal C Connect the last wire - should be white but may have been changed - together with the Yellow wire to terminal B. Now connect the wires from the inverter output - something like U W V - to A B C. the order doesn't matter. Try the motor. If it just buzzes and doesn't turn change over the two 'Brown' wires. If it runs but goes the wrong way, change any 2 wires from the inverter. Hope this helps, John |

Good news the lathe is running Can someone confirm what the best belt position would be. Id like to position the belts and then leave them alone and control the speed via the inverter Lathes and Boxford are all new to me so ive posted a couple of pictures The belt layout is this ok or should i change Handle in this position Picture of the lathe as you can see its quite a tidy one gave £425 for it which i thought was a good deal |

:beer: Glad to hear the lathe is working! Depending on your inverter you may find that torque drops off at low speed. So you may still need to change the belts. John |

So you think its a matter of trial and error to see what best suits |
| JohnC:
I would say so. :smart: John |
