On 36 volts though you will rip apart your snowblower. Sent from my Verizon Wireless Phone ----- Reply message -----
If you should keep the lift stalled for five or ten
seconds, that fuse replacing circuit breaker will
open. So far,none of that miraculous Joseph Lucas smoke has been
allowed to escape. :)From: "RJ Kanary" <rjkanary consolidated net> Date: Thu, May 1, 2014 1:44 pm Subject: (ET) Circuit breaker in lift motor? To: "Charlie" <medievalist gmail com>, "et" <Elec-trak cosmos phy tufts edu> RJ On 5/1/2014 1:33 PM, Charlie wrote:
Hey, thanks, guys. I'll pull it apart this evening. It makes no sense to me to have a CB in there, I'd rather use a properly sized dash fuse or breaker instead. RJ, has that 25 amp fuse ever blown? Chris, if I put the motor at 36 volts, won't that make it run faster? I want the bloody thing to run SLOWER, not faster, since it has no limit switches for some reason. I suppose I should try to figure out how to put a limit switch on it, so it'll stop when the mowing deck is all the way up. --Charlie On Wed, Apr 30, 2014 at 7:05 PM, CZ Unit <cz alembic crystel com> wrote:On 4/30/2014 6:50 PM, Charlie wrote:I decided to fix the dead front lift on my I5 last Sunday and spent a few hours with the schematic and a voltmeter. It turns out that the switches, wires and fuse are all good, but the motor (which has nothing visibly wrong with it) doesn't spin at all, in either direction.It's also possible one of your brushes in the motor is gone. They can be replaced, but are a bit more of a pain.
