(ET) Reversing Motor

[Allan <allanhv worldnet att net>]

Thanks for all the help on reversing my E-20 motor.

I understand that reversing the field should work, and has been done on
other E-20 models.  I guess that leaves me with 2 more questions:

1. If there is a compensating field winding wired in series with the
armature, wouldn't that cause problems (poor reverse speed control under
load) regardless of whether you reverse the field or the armature?

2. Is there any way to determine if there are compensation windings in
the motor (short of taking it apart)?

Thanks again,
Allan
