I'm a DIY'er. Setting up a dual purpose shop-cooling and overspray fan. Bought this motor which reads "1.5 hp" but, looking at the amps, shouldn't it really be closer to 3hp? Anyway, I'd like to be able to slow it down occasionally because it will knock you off balance to walk in front of it. * I have the safety grate removed only to take photos of the motor's spec plate. Used it for the first time, yesterday, to remove overspray and It did so very quickly. Have it wired 220v right now. What type speed control do I need? Thanks
