Mine is an inherited TD6G. Came with the box shown, my fix, and the internet search picture I used for my repair. Nothing special on mine...two wires.

I have the same bench grinder. Cherry red paint and pleasing shape. But what a kooky half-baked design.
Great well balanced motor, nice cast iron base, crappy pressure-cast garbage alloy, hard to braze, shatter happy proprietary design toolrests, and finally the cherry on this sunday......a fragile switch assembly.

All easily fixed with a real switch and thicker mounting plate, steel angle iron made into beefy tool rests, and probably do something about the 1930's style boxy explodey-doodle (possibly PCB) capacitor under the kimono.

I would have thought with a name like Wolf it would be German. Being England it should have a name like Weasel or Ostrich.
