Thanks Steve. From your information, I found them at Digikey ($0.40 ea). > You should probably lift one side of the diode when checking continuity > - while it's in circuit, you don't know what you're checking. > > - Steve These seem to rectify the mains to supply the field (F+) and logic supply. 1000V seems to be over-kill and 1.5A seems a little weak. While I am ordering parts, it might be smart to order fuse holders and extra fuses. The manual shows a fuse on the mains input and the armature output, but a 1.5A slow-blow on the field line might be good too, although a fuse might be more expensive than the diode. -- Kirk Wallace (California, USA http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ Hardinge HNC lathe, Bridgeport mill conversion, doing XY now, Zubal lathe conversion pending) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
