I just made a relica motor with the wiring to suit rheostat speed-control.
This started out as a "regular" DR3A.

I think there is a special switch which has the "pot" part built into it. Presumably you pull and twist.
Usually on these two-speed motors you have a fixed resistance in the motor.
The wiper switch shorts this out and you get two-speeds.
Thers's an aricle on the BCF home page about this.
