Oh yes, too small a motor, and it was running backwards, and was wired with house wireing. But nothing serious.
Hi
This machine looks very good. The restoration is well done. The replacement off the oilers can not be a problem.
Backwards running of the motor is only a small wiring problem. When it is a 2 phases you must reconnect the condenser. When it is a 3 phases motor you have only to swap two wires.
