- it is a 110 volt I do not know about the speed. The label does say single phase motor. There are 2 blck wires coming from the motor and 1 black and 1 red wire coming from the power cord. I got the grinder without a switch on it. I hope this is the info you need.

take a multimeter put it on ohms.
test the switch to see which contacts correspond,
then test the plug and 1 wire to find the two current wire.
the next two are for the motor.
connect according to the switch.

Need more info, please: Is this a 110 volt or 220 volt motor? Is it multiple speed or single speed, i.e., how many positions on the switch? What colors are the wires? Charlie
