Re: Turning Spindle Off and On

So, can you tell me where to hook the relay up to on that drive.
Obviously I am electronics ignorant, or I wouldn't be asking. I
don't have money to be burning stuff up, so specifics would be
great, like hook this to this, this to this...etc. This should be
like a cake walk for most of the members on the list. I am assuming
I could hook the relay up to the manual/automatic start on the drive
by removing the jumperr and connecting the relay to it...again
confirmation would be wonderfull.
