The "universal" booklet mentions it, but the terminal numbers do not exist on this 1.5 HP rated device.

I somehow had it reverseing in around a half second, jumping a good 3/4" up in the air doing it, but then must have set something bogus and had to do a systen default reset, so now a reverse is rather leasurely again ATM. I've had it error off several times when the speed was above 60 hz too. I'll sus it out eventually but I was hoping to save some time by picking some brains on this list. One thing of note, the default hz is 400, and it never goes more than a thou or so, unable to catch up. But set it down to 160 hz and it fairly screams in short order. Coil currents at 140 hz are just below an amp, FLA at 60 hz is 3.6 amps/phase, so obviously inductance is killing available torque long before it spits copper bars out of the armature. Or fins off the internal fan. But I believe over a 2 or 2.5/1 range it will be happy, and I know it can reverse quick enough to unscrew the chuck if set right.
