I just picked up a 1993 Jet GH-1340T lathe but I can't find any real information about it. I'm hoping someone can point me towards a manual or electrical schematic. I'm going to power it up with a VFD but still want to use the foot brake most of the time. I thinking I can set the VFD to coast to stop when the brake is applied so I don't fight or harm the VFD. Not sure if I still want to use the forward and reverse contactors to break the motor leads or just use the contactors as inputs to the VFD. Anyone powering their lathe with a VFD and still use the foot brake? How did you set it up?
Thanks,
Randy
