contols don't work

I installed a new motor and new contactor now the drive motor does not work with the handle controls It works fine if I press the contactors. Any help would be much appreciated specially since paying that hefty price for a new motor.
thanks in advance

The brake switch is right there beside the new motor you replaced did you check it?

Some trees retain a form of biological memory of past droughts, and after surviving a dry period can change how their stomata (tiny pores on leaves) regulate water, and adjust growth patterns for years afterward.
