Hello,
I've been distracted for a while, but now am back to working on my Universal 15-30. The motor needs rewiring, and I've prepped it all pretty well (reading the step-by-step instructions on the VSSM blog), but there are a few differences since mine is not a potted motor.
I have a nice appliance cord with plug ready to solder on, but realized the plug is polarized, and I'm not sure which wire on the motor would take the polarized wire. It does make a difference, doesn't it?
If necessary, I can take a photo of the wires coming out of the motor, but they aren't colored. If I try to extrapolate from the potted motor instructions, the longer cord from the motor takes one wire and the shorter cord takes another. Should I consider that the red wire is the polarized one, and attach my polarized lead in like fashion?
Thanks for any help!
