poppaclutch Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Below is a picture of a treadmill motor controller I would like to use on a 72" belt grinder I am building. I need help figuring out where to hook up my Potentiometer. Thanks, Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the link. I now have joined another forum and am waiting to be activated before I can ask a simple question. I had hoped someone from the knife forum side of IFI , whose actually done this , would chime in. IFI is my favorite forum due to the vast amount of experienced and like minded people. I could use the control panel that came with the treadmill for my speed control but it has more bells and whistles than I need. I also have more simple motor controllers (that I know) that would be adaptable. They have bulky transformers. Then there's my pile of single speed AC motors. Fe-Wood.....I got your cross peen.....heh heh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
