I am trying to get a Colchester lathe with a 3hp Polyphase motor running. The seller said he was running it on 480, and I need to change it over to 240. The tag on the motor says 220 - 240/ 400 - 420 so I believe it can be run on 240.
There are six leads from the motor labeled A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, and C2. A1, B1, and C1 are tied together. The other three are each connected to a line. What would be the correct combinations for the lower voltage?
Thanks,
Forrest
