need help with baldor motor rewire!!!

Many years ago I rewired my wilton square wheel from 110v to 220v and now need to wire it back to 110v-I opened it up and I must have been smarter back then as I can't figure out how to get it back to 110v. I also rewired my Kalamazoo 1x42 1sm and just won't make sense any more-I have the high and low voltage wiring specs but they dont coincide with what I have wired- anyone out there have some ideas for me please.
I can share pictures if nessy. thanks,rex

Am at my wits end, I hate to ask but if someone has a kalamazoo or wilton that is wired for 110v, if you could open the cover and let me know what wires are connected it would help greatly. I know this is a lot to ask and everyone is very busy right now but it would be of great help as i don't know where else to turn and I am trying to get my shop back to running after a year and a half being in boxes and need a knife fix badly! thanks, rex

What wires do youo have inside the pecker head as options? Shouldn't be to hard to get you running.

the kalamazoo has yellow#4 and red #8 and white together--white #2 black #5 and orange #3 together-red and blue #1.

the wilton has white "A" and blue #1--black #5 orange #3 and white #2 together-
black "B" and yellow #4 together--red #3 and brown "J" together

the kalamazoo is suposed to be #1&#3&#8-#4&#5&#2

the wilton is suposed to be #3&#8&#2-#4&#5 and #1 alone

I tried to wire it as per the diagram but blew the circuit breaker after i tried to turn it on-

fixed!!

o.k. so the wiring diagram on the motor is wrong and why I couldn't get it going.
the correct wiring is #1&#3&#5& the unmarked red wire
#2&#4&#8& the unmarked white wire.
this is on the kalamazoo but the wiring is basicly the same for the wilton.
it's unfortunate I have had to go back to 110v after enjoying the 220v for so many
years as there is such a big differance in performance.
Thanks for trying to help.

I'm glad it is fixed. I was looking for some wire triggers, by the way, something from xps https://www.mrosupply.com/tools/hydr...px-power-team/
