Re: 120volt to 240volt

Since this is considerable motor it will need a good deal more capacity
to cope with the starting current than 1500 watts.
I do not know enough to calculate it but the first suggestion to replace
the motor would be best. Otherwise asking the question on
alt.engineering.electrical will get more knowledgeable answers.

Re: 120volt to 240volt
Just a note.. US power is delivered at 60Hz (110V), where many other
countries that use 220V is delivered at 50Hz. You may need additional
circuitry to convert the frequency, otherwise you motor may burn up
because it's not wound for the appropriate frequency.
