Eric,
Pat said it best about the single to 3 phase converter.
The "tar like" substance - sounds like verrrrry old rubber
disintegrating into its original constituents. I've seen the same thing on
things I know were rubber in their original form. I'd say live with it
because you'd be hard pressed to find new rubber pieces.
Enjoy!
Mark

Eric,
The best and easiest way to connect this up to single phase power is to use
a single to 3-phase converter.
If you are in need of a hoist, and the price was good enough to spend
another $50 on a phase converter, then this is fine. If it is too expensive,
sell this one and buy a single phase unit
I looked on ebay and found
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HD-1-3-3-4-HP-Static-Phase-Converter-Mill-Drill-Saw-
USA-MADE-Single-to-three-/261070427968?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cc902
9740, which is a solid state phase converter for $46. Have no connection
with this company.
Try various solvents in moderation to see what attacks the tar.
Peace,
Pat

Is there any way to wire this to work on Single Phase, maybe with reduced
power?
What is this thing worth?
Does anyone want/need this?
Finally, what could be the tar like substance that is all over that
controller? Any ideas where this could have been used? The buttons work,
but it just looks scary! 8>)
