Hello everyone, my name is kev.
This is probably the wrong place to post but seemed suitable.....

I have a kity 613 bandsaw with a dead motor. In fact its been dead for about 2 years but since im in lockdown ive finally had time to do something about it!!
The original was a 240v 720w. I decided to upgrade it whilst i was buying a new motor ( i couldnt locate an original or direct replacement anyway )....
From the 240 plug, its 3 core up to the nvr switch, then from the switch its 4 core tonthe original motor.... but the new motor wiring diagram only shows live, neutral and earth.
The 4 core is comprised brown, blue, black and earth.
I have wired the earth, live and neutral to their positions but i have no idea what to do with the black

Thanks for any replies ( and some patience! )

P.s, the replacement is 1100w 240v and for some reason im struggling to upload piks

 

Yes, more info is needed, the type of motor etc.
Where are you located?
One may be a neutral that is not needed for this 240v motor.
Depends on the nature of your supply at your location.
Max.

There are 4 connections inline down the side of the nvr... from top, brown to black, blue to black, black to black and another pair of black to black at the bottom. The black cable from the 4 core actually goes up to the top of the nvr, not directly to the black connections down the side of the switch
