Marble Machine No 1 Motorised 

Assembly Instructions

21

Wiring 1

The circuit should be as per the picture below. Solder the leads to the switch but do 

not solder the leads onto the motor until it is mounted in the frame. Use a 25-40W 

soldering iron with a small tip and flux cored electronics solder. Keep that big old iron 

used for plumbing far away from this kit. It will melt the motor backplate and ruin it.
