OK. I have a small 2" diameter grain auger I use to feed my little clipper 2B grain cleaner. It has a 1/4 HP 120V motor on it with the smallest pulley I can get on the motor. The little auger has the biggest pulley I can find locally on it now. I would have to special order and wait several days to find anything larger.
Still it runs just slightly too fast for the clipper to keep up with it. I have to constantly keep an eye on it and turn it off every few minutes to let the clipper catch up. Speeding the clipper up just doesn't clean as well so don't want to do that.
Can I put like a ceiling fan dimmer on the motor and slow it down just slightly till I get it dialed in right? I found a dimmer that is rated at just the same amps as the little 1/4 hp motor. Will this work or will it harm the motor?
