Hi guys, hoping an electrical wizard will be able to confirm a couple of things for me.
I just acquired a bench pillar drill (JET brand) from the USA. Obviously it is 110V / 60 Hz.
1. Can anyone confirm that if I rewire it per the top half of the photo, I can run it in Europe just like that? Any idea how to convert Black / Red / Grey / Yellow into live, neutral and earth? I guess 'Tape' means join together?
2. Am I right that if it ran at 1720 at 60 Hz, it will run at 5/6th of that in Europe? (1433 rpm).
Many thanks, Al.
