Bridgeport table feed motor wiring Emimec 07-19-2008

I wonder if anyone has a readable diagram, of how the spaghetti junction of
wires that lurks behind the speed control housing of a Bridgeport table
feed, should be wired to the microswitches.

I have downloaded several versions of a Bridggy handbook, one diagram claims
to have been "cleaned" but its of little use.

I need to know what (colour) wires, that come from the black box speed
control, mounted in the electrical cabinet, go to what terminals of the
microswitches.Which ones are linked, basically, where they all go !

I have compared with another new machine, but the wire colours seem
different, and seem to differ in how its wired judging by some permanently
linked wires in both housings.

Hi Bob,
I can't help immediately, but there's a working machine at my Dad's
place, I'll try to have a look next time I'm over there - but it won't
be for a couple of weeks.

Hi
If you have the Quinton Crane drive system I have a diagram "QC-E-3438"
on which I have added the wire colours used on my machine. If you still
need this info. I could scan it for you.
