DONT TRY THIS AT HOME

Betty, from Maine, sent me another photo.  This one was of the wire to her 201 motor.
Frankly this frightened me and I emailed her right away to never turn that machine on again and to check out the post on Rain's blog. http://vssmb.blogspot.com/2012/01/complete-how-to-re-wire-potted-motor.html

Who knows what that wiring is like inside?  I had a machine that had BEAUTIFUL wiring on the outside but the re-wire at the field coil was so bad that I was surprised I didn't electrocute myself when I bought the machine.

Actually I would love to look at this motor.  I am sure that the wires need to be replaced all the way to the field coil.  But Betty can do it.  I am sure she can.
