If that's the worst thing that happens, be thankful!
And keep wood protection on your table. ;)
I'm running mine on a rotary phase converter as well, though the ilder motor on mine is a 15HP one. We actually tripped the 30amp breaker on the lathe as Neil started it up at 1800 rom with the 10" three jaw chuck on it. The phase converter never blinked and I kept running the milling machine. I think this is the way it's supposed to work!
