What am I doing here?
Evening all,
I need to pick the brains of those who know more about this than me (not difficult I know).
Earlier this evening my lathe started making a nasty hum whilst running and seems to have lost power. It's a Jet 1442 and has 2 capacitors, I suspect the run capacitor is fried so I've opened it up to get access. The fitted run capacitor is 30uf but the manual states 25uf. Motor is 750w and I just want to check if it will cause problems to run with the lower rated capacitor?
Thanks
Tris
