I have recently aquired a Hygain Rotobrake rotator, less control box, and
I want to put in back in service.

Unfortunately I do not have the manual and need some information.

As near as I can tell the motor requires 110 vac and the brake release
solenoid requires 110 vdc.  

If this is correct, what is the value of the a.c. capacitor that would
be in the control box and what is the value of the direction potentiometer
in the rotator?

Better yet, does someone have a manual, or a copy thereof, that I can
obtain?
