Only three connections thereOpen up the connection plate. If it looks like there are 6 connections coming from the inside and three of them are connected together, you'll easily be able to rewire it from star configuration to delta configuration, which will drop the required voltage and mean you can run it off a cheap VFD. The plate shows Y only, but you can be sure by opening up the connection plate.

If there are only three connections coming out, then the star point is probably buried in the motor somewhere and you'll need to do something more complicated (expensive VFD, rotary phase converter, static phase converter, get it rewired or buy a new motor).
most drills that go up to half inch chucks have half hp motors fitted and are 1450 rpm bigger back gear morse taper drills are 3/4 and bigger hp
1.5hp. It would quite possibly be fine running 240V.
NO!Can try if not dangerous. How I should connect into a single phase plug the 3 cable? Guess two should go together or one escluded?
1.5hp is a lot for that drill No reason for it IMO and 2800rpm is unusual too.
I might have a 5/8" drive single phase motor you can have.
