I've been working on my 1024. It came from Quebec and the seller had told me it was 600v. The brake on the motor sheave does not look original and is labeled 575v which I believe is what the seller looked at. I made a 240-600 transformer and run it of a Phase Perfect. The starter was buzzing some so I took it apart to inspect the contacts and found the coils were rated at 380-415 50 hz. I didn't want to chance screwing up the complicated three speed motor so I took it off ( horrible job ). I don't want to disconnect the wires as there is no P head, just a million wires running to drum switches. I want to put good numbers on the wires first so it is sitting for now.
My question ( finally ) is whether anyone knows if the three speed motor was available in various voltages and exported. I will take the motor to my guy and have him test it but the coil voltage has me worried. The reversing starter also smoked when started so that will need work too. Motor still runs in all three speeds so the smoke didn't come from it. Dave
