[melsdad]

Does anyone have a picture of the inside of there KBAC27D drive that shows the proper wiring to wire a reverse switch? ?

I have the manual but I cannot seem to find any info on reverse switching. A picture would be awesome and would probably help others also.

I've posted this a bunch of times.

If you search here and Knifedogs, you will get more detailed responses where I put more effort into typing out the explanations



You need a single pole, double throw switch - Probably fairly heavy rating.
Let the heavy gauge of that jumper be your guide.


SPDT

Just ignore the foot switch if you don't want it.

I had seen this picture before but still had questions.

So remove the white jumper and wire forward reverse to the switch...correct?

what about the common connection on the board?

where do you get the power from for the reverse switch?

these questions may seem stupid for some, but I have never done this before.

The help is much appreciated!!

Yes remove that jumper wire

Use the three connections on the board forward, common, reverse

Connect them to the three connections to the switch.
Make sure the common is connected to the middle terminal of the switch

That sounds simple enough! I guess I was looking into it deeper than I needed to.

Thanks
