Hi all as majority of you know i purchased a warco gh 1322 lathe running on three phase, i got a transwave converter to run it on but when i wired it all up the lathe would run for 1min then turn off so i thought this was a defected unit but after speaking to a local company they said that it would of been because the motor was wired up wrong something about star or delta???? i have to ring them back on monday to see how much he is going to charge me for a converter and hopefully 1hr labour on getting it all running because electrics goes straight over my head.
I have been cleaning the lathe down today including topping the oil up but i noticed when topping the head stock oil up it has like a feed with a couple of holes in, which looks like they send oil inside the bearings???? but they have what looks like a diy filter in them should these be in or will it reduce the amount of oil able to get into the bearings???
