:confused:
I've heard it can be done but how?

I guess you have to disconnect the capacitore. Do I then connect the cap-wires to the third phase of the motor controller?

I'm not going to actually do this myself (you don't believe me do you) its just that I need to ask our works sparky to do it and I need to know what to ask him.



Love this site.

:D
