Guys I have a Lux Mill which is from Taiwan,its a 1 1/2hp motor that can be wired 110v/220v.I wire it for 220v but just hums,so I took it back apart and the capacitors I think are bad due to being swollen and they were very hot.But on the capactor it says 125vac 300uf motor start,what I'm wondering is when I wired it for 220 volt did I damage the capacitors since it says 125vac when I applied 220v?I wired it back to 110volt and it ran for about 10mins then I heard one of the caps pop and it shut down.The wiring diagram is alittle confusing,leads are #1-#6 with #5 and #6 being the start windings.110volt L1-#2,#3,#5 L2-#1,#4,#6 with capacitor wire going to L1 and L2.
220v L1-#2 L2-#4,#6 with #1,#3,#5 being a joint but how does the capacitors tied into this which I wired it with #5 and with #6?Its confusing but HELP,I check prices at griz cost close to 400.00----kroll
