    That's a very nice set up you have. I put a 1 1/2 hp 220 single phase on my lathe where it replaced a 3/4 hp. The additional power is very nice and at low speeds it cut superb. Yours being 3 phase you can raise the 60 htz to 70 htz and go the other direction down to 50 htz. I have a 2 hp 3 phase on my mill and the VFD make it nice to change speed up or down.
    Nice job o your lathe.
