AC LINE FUSES –
Model 1865 has a 12A fuse already installed in both the “F1”
and “F2” fuse holders. A fuse is only really necessary in “F2” if a two-phase
230 VAC power supply (with two hot sides) is used.
Step 5 – Connect the Motor
A cord should be used for the motor connection in order to properly seal
the liquid tight fitting. The fitting will accept cord diameters between 0.17”
and 0.47” diameter. The length of the cord should be kept short for minimum
voltage drop and only copper wire with 60O C rated insulation should be used.
Loosen the nut from the liquid tight fitting and insert the cord through the
fitting and into the enclosure. Connect the two motor power leads to “A1” and
“A2” on the terminal block inside the control. The terminal block will accept
wire sizes from 18 to 14 gauge. The terminal block screws should be tightened
to 6 lb-in (0.678 Nm). Connect the motor frame ground to “CHASSIS GROUND”
on the terminal block. Refer to the connection diagrams for Bodine DC motors
in Figures 5 and 6. If the motor doesn’t rotate in the desired direction as
connected, switch the two motor wires. Note that these connection diagrams
apply to Bodine motors only. When the connections are done, tighten the nut

Step 6 – Connect AC Line Cord
A cord should be used for the AC power connection in order to properly seal
against water through the liquid tight fitting. See Step 5 for cord and wire
specifications. Connect the hot side of the line to “L1” and the neutral side to
“L2.” Connect earth ground to the terminal labeled “CHASSIS GROUND.” The
barrier terminal block screws should be tightened to 6 lb-in (0.678 Nm).
Step 7 – Close and Seal the Enclosure
Close the hinged cover and tighten the four screws, one at each corner.
Step 8 - Connect to AC Power
After all other connections are made and the control is closed, connect the
AC line cord to the AC power supply.
