Starts fine in low, and doesn't seem to struggle in the slightest while drilling. In high gear, it struggles a lot, bogs down heavily, and sometimes I don't think it will actually run the press to speed, so I shut it down.
Oh, jet gearhead drill, TEMCo XR3 rpc, both relatively new.
I amp clamped it, but my readings are all over the place. Feeding the press, 3 amps on each leg to run on low speed, 7 on high, with an 11 amp spike. At the disconnect feeding the RPC, I get 38amps on high to run it up to speed, once it's running, it takes like 15-19amps to sustain.
Im thinking something definitely isn't right, seeing as my rpc should be oversized for the application, and my readings are pretty far outside the data plate on the RPC....
Thoughts?
