Sure. Can you show what's in the control box?

A beefy motor like that probably has an electromechanical contactor relay in the box.

Basically I want to know if it already uses one of these guys or should I look for one :gift:

Microswitches I don't have but they're cheap on digikey.

Normally I would put at least two microswitches in series with the coil of the contactor relay.

Just 1 15A 230vac push button .
Agreed one micro switch over each tower and one on the stop bar to go with the go button .

Sorry Dave, looks like you were not lucky this time. The one I got is 10A :(

You can still have it if you want it.

Have the 2 for front wheels made , working on the 2 for the rear wheels . Hope to have them done this weekend . Biggest thing I am fighting is fumes. I have a mask , a filter fan and an exhaust fan . But still have to take breaks to let the air clear . Only 24 x 32 shop . Can't tolerate cold any more so can't open the doors for long . I like many will be glad to see warmer weather . :violin: As soon as the 1"x 4" bolts arrive I can upload pics. of the 446 on the lift . Doing laundry right now because the :wife: :whip: is complaining about the smell of my work clothes in the hamper . :pullhair: Oh well happy wife happy life they say .
