  • Jumping in with both feet.

    Well,...hello everyone.My name is Rodney,and I became a new member just a couple of days ago.I live in Red Cross, N.C. which is a mile from Frog Pond, N.C. UH....SAY WHAT??! FROG POND??Yes there is such a place.Red Cross is about 30 miles east of Charlotte, N.C.I'd like to say it's an honor to be a part of this group!I've been scrolling part time for a little over a year and a half, and fortunately I haven't collected any "wooden frisbees."I haven't misplaced any fingers yet, either.The best part about scrolling is --it's fun!!

          The reason for the smoke is incorrect wiring, posible melted insulation between motor windings and motor frame.

          You mentioned connecting power to the red & and black wire. Did you do anything with White wire? Per the lable on the motor the black wire is high the Red is low. White common...
