    Wiring new motor ? Consew 3/4 hp

    My maxnc burnt up the motor so I ordered a consew 3/4 hp motor which seems to be popular for the taig guys. My old motors were both ac that just wire wired to an on/off switch and plugged in. I understand this one is DC and has a foot pedal. How does everyone eliminate the foot pedal and still adjust the speed? Would like a simple on/off switch (not software controlled) and a pot to adjust speed if i want to try with something other than aluminum.
    Any help is appreciated
    Thanks

    Most likely the foot pedal is a potentiometer. Yes you could use a switch to the power supply to turn it off and on.
    A lazy man does it twice.
