Hi Daniel,
First, forget about the Manta motor. Although it can work with that controller, it is not near the motor that forklift motor is and will likely fail in minutes.
Second, get a proper PB-6 pot box.

Hi Daniel,"What do"?

Dude,The new motor is supposedly to be more powerful (7.5 kw vs 5.2 kw), even for it's small size.
Those use a special pot. You cannot replace it with a standard pot and have it work inside the box. Maybe on the bench, like peggus suggested, with the pot outside the box.Also, we've changed the old pot, but kept the old pot-box.
Yeah, it is. Those are armature terminals on the motor. It has a permanent magnet (PM) field. Just wire it up per directions leaving out the field connections and plug diode (A2) connection.What we need to know is if the motor is pairable with the controller, even if it's only got two contact-points, and no armature-points.
