As it is ment to be a series wound dc motor, for just testing is it a case of connecting battery (+) to A1, connecting A2 to D1, and then connecting D2 to the battery (-)?
That sounds right, I've used automotive jumper cables for testing motors, you don't want to use more then 12v for testing the motor unless it has a load as it can over speed the motor and damage it.
what is the stock top speed and stock loaded weight of a milk float?
