How to wire a dayton 115v 2 speed motor from high to low

This video shows how easy it is to change a dayton 115v 2 speed motor from high to low speed. Keep in mind that not all motors are the same and some may be slightly different.

How do we wire it for a pottery wheel with a Togo switch to switch between high and low without messing with wires?

[@robertfalck7082]

I am curious - what happens if you connect both speeds at the same time? Both T2 and T4 together with the hot wire? Will it run on high speed or low speed or will it be destroyed?

[@Alan.89]

I did that by accident when i first wired it up. It makes a pop sound and trips the breaker.

What’s the neutral tied into?

[@nasaboy1982]

I have this exact motor, do you know which wires to switch to reverse rotation?

[@ROADIEZ824]

The label on my motor say's "TO REVERSE ROTATION SWITCH RED & BLK LEADS" MOTOR MUST BE GROUNDED can send you a pic of it. Just send me an email via my name @ gmail put your name & fan in subject line.

Where can I get me a plate thingy?? Lol!! Thanks for the vid

Watched the whole video. Still waiting to see how wire it...

[@stevefielding709]

how would you wire a 2 speed motor to use 1 speed in 230 volts?

[@Alan.89]

it depends on the motor itself. most motors have a wiring diagram that shows how to wire it for 230. check out my video on how to read a wiring diagram. i hope it helps.

MASTERS ENGINEERING---BUT THE QUESTION IS WHY NOT JUST RUN IT WITH THE TOGGLE SWITCH AND HAVE A 2 SPEED MOTOR...OR SAVE SOME CASH AND GET A CHEAPER 1 SPEED MOTOR ..Sorry didn't mean to yell...

[@izmashing5993]

I have one. What are these for?

[@Alan.89]

Mainly belt driven fans.

[@izmashing5993]

@@Alan.89 can I make a generator out of it?

[@Alan.89]

@@izmashing5993 probably not.
