Hey Duke! The lower right big lug thing is worthless. It's for plug braking. M- gets connected from the motor. B+ gets connected to the battery pack's + side. B- get's connected to the battery pack's - side. The top little lug thing is where you connect to the battery pack's +. The bottom two little lug things get connected to 2 of the 3 wires from a radio shack pot (the middle pot wire and either side one). I think 36v would top you out at about 25 mph or so. I"m just guessing, though. Welcome to Ecomodder! ya!
