Bradley, are you saying that either the 3rd of the 4th of my candidates is the right connection?

I am not sure how to connect Terminal 3 and 4.
The white and red wires on the left of the table saw switch box are connected to the front start and stop buttons.
I think those wires should be...

I think I should connect Terminal 1, 2, 5, 6 of the Short Stop to L1, L3, T3, T1 of the table saw switch box respectively with new wires over existing wire connections.

I am trying to install an electronic motor brake(called Short Stop) to my table saw.
The installation manual (http://www.saldet.com/pdf/manual_1250b_shortstop_g.pdf) says that it can be done by 6...

The second image attached is a similar one.
They were called enameled and...

Greg, Palomar College does provide fine programs. However their main purpose is to train young students for employment in modern woodworking business, which I do not want.

Steven, Cerritos...
