Can I use a DPDT switch to reverse the controllers motor leads to change shaft rotation?

It all depends on the type of DC motor you use.If the motor will run directly from DC power source, such as a small battery, in both directions (by reversing + and -) then it will also work in both directions with controller. I am using this controller with dad switch. HOWEVER THE SWITCH TO CHANG POLARITY NEEDS TO BE PLACED BETWEEN CONTROLLER OUTPUT AND MOTOR. IT WILL MOST LIKELY NOT WORK IF DPDT SWITCH IS PLACED BETWEEN POWER SOURCE AND CONTROLLER. I MYSELF DID FIND A DC MOTOR THAT THANKS WORKS VERY WELL.I CAN CHANGE THE DIRECTION OF SHAFT WITH DPDT SWITCH AND VERY THE SPEED IN EITHER DIRECTION WITH THE CONTROLER. I HOPE THIS HELPS.

Absolutely. But only *after* the speed controller. i.e. run 12 volts to speed control input, then run speed control's output to the DPDT switch center two terminals. Then from a pair of outer two terminals (with crossover wires to other two outer terminals) to the motor.

I believe these motors are switchable left and right, could not be %100 sure but I never see these styles listed for left or right

If you mean "Variable Speed Reversing" then yes I believe it is. The manual can be found here: http://servicenet.blackanddecker.com/documents/English/Instruction%20Manual/90565546,DR670.pdf

no. but if the access panel on the right rear of the motor is removed, you'll see a red wire and a black one. don't mess with these. this motor is split phase, which means it can turn in either direction. that said, there are two connections which accept either a female spade-type disconnect, or wire ring type. these are the two leads in from the on/off switch. one lead per pole. to get the motor to turn in the desired direction, simply switch either of those leads on the poles. hope this helps.

Only way that I know of to reverse the direction is to swap the leads to the motor. If you open the case that way, the warranty be invalid. Exchange it; when you get the properly-wired one you will find it a very useful tool (I have actually felled small trees with mine).

It is a single speed motor at 1725rpm. The motor can be reversed by changing two wires around. It's easy just follow the directions that come with motor. I had to reverse the motor's direction with the one I got. I'm sure a switch could be installed to perform this function if one wanted to do so. You would need a three way switch to this.

It can't be reversible, if you need to change you may need to use Teleflex SL-3 309474 control Thank you very much

Yes. Just flip a couple of connectors. Instructions are included with the motor.

I dont believe so. Its rotation to determined by the electric motor. You would have to modify and/or add resistance to the circuit (I dont recommend )

Yes and very easy to switch between forward and reverse. We have really put this drill to work and are very happy with its performance.

Yes and a nice feature of the inverter is you do not have to stop the lathe for reverse. If it is running flip the switch, it will slow to a halt and then start up in the reverse direction. Nice for sanding.

you can change the rotaion of the motors by swiching tghe wires around, been there done that

There are 4 switches on the bottom of the controller, make sure the one labeled THRO is in the correct position, for me that is the OFF position. These switches reverse the direction.

Yes, it has a Reverse button that will reverse fan direction. The buttons on it are: low, med hi, rev, off, and light on or off. Easy to code to old remote transmitter. Four switches, on or off.

No, there is no "reverse", automatic or otherwise, but why would you ever need it to go in reverse? It spins like it should spin.

Yes. It is very well designed and I am really happy with it. Simple to change from forward to reverse, and a cinch to swap out drill bits or driver heads. Really pleased with this purchase!

To reverse the motor you need to change the wiring. It is easy. Have not thought of using a switch to do it but I guess it can be done. With regard to the speed of the motor I only use it on one speed. Not sure if you can put an in line box (reastat?) to allow for a variable speed motor. The motor works great. I use it to power a sander in my woodworking shop.
