5.Connect an ohmmeter to the BRN wire. Connect the other lead from the meter to the TAN wire. Turn the knob for the SMALL potentiometer all the way counterclockwise. The meter should read <3K ohm. Turn the knob all the way clockwise, the meter should read between 94K and 116K ohms.

6.Connect an ohmmeter to the GRY wire. Connect the other lead from the meter to the TAN wire. Turn the knob for the MEDIUM potentiometer all the way counterclockwise. The meter should read <3K ohm. Turn the knob all the way clockwise, the meter should read between 94K and 116K ohms.

7.Connect an ohmmeter to the TAN wire. Connect the other lead from the meter to the TAN wire. Turn the knob for the LARGE potentiometer all the way counterclockwise. The meter should read between 13.5K and 19.5K ohms. Turn the knob all the way clockwise, the meter should read between 108K and 132K ohms.

If continuity is present at all positions, the potentiometer switches are operating properly.

If continuity is not present at any position, replace the potentiometer switches.

8. Refer to Fig 35 when reconnecting wires.

Removal and Replacement:

1.Disconnect the grinder from the power source.
