Popular Post gee-dub Posted May 19, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 19, 2023 The story of the control board or the remote failing after a decade or so on these units is not new. My buddy and I decided we needed to apply some science to it . . . I had been using a simple on/off remote that plugs into the outlet and had hard-wired the motor speed to "medium". This wasn't really super satisfactory so we (say this like Tim Allen) "rewired it". We added a pilot light so I would know when the unit was energized. We then added a pull-cord style 4 position switch. I can now pull-cord the unit to the speed setting I want. The remote still turns the unit on or off. It just happens to come on or off at whatever speed setting I last used. Much better! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Taylor Posted January 29 Report Share Posted January 29 I have a remote control including the wall bracket for a JDS 750 that has been sitting in a drawer for over 7 years. I took the batteries out when I moved so no corrosion. When I moved 12 hours away from my old shop I left the 750 hanging in my old shop for the new owner but mistakenly packed the remote. The new owners tore the building down and built a mini-mansion on the property. Wondering if anybody wants it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
