Thanks for the replies. I mainly wanted to go to 220 as it has less current 
draw and I have 220 out to the tower already. I do have a new reversible motor 
on the tower that will run on either so that was my logic on 220, that and the 
age of all the stuff in the box. I guess I will give it a go and see what 
happens.
