OK — it’s been too many years and way too many brewskies since I had any motor theory, so here’s my question: Can some type of speed control be used on a 3/4HP, 115VAC, 1Ph, TEFC motor?
Thanks,

Yes.
Different sized pulley combinations as on a drillpress.
If you were hoping/thinking of one of those variable AC boxes, then only work on universal motors, not induction motors.

Most Speed controls are for universal motors.
