tion anywhere except at the stop position by disconnect-
ing positive (+) lead from terminal 1.

(b)

Connect terminals 1 and 3.

(c)

Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
2 and negative (–) lead to terminal 5, check that the motor
stops running at the stop position after the motor operates
again.

If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.
