The reason you probably couldn't use it is because you don't have three phase service at your house. This grinder was used for a commercial customer who had three phase service. The residential sector isn't allowed three phase service.

Really I could use it but I don`t want to spend the money on a phase convertor.

Sold one just like it last year on E-bay. It's a nice machine but the 3 phase limits home usage. If your going to use a phase converter you will need a rotary phase converter, one of those "fool it" electronic boxes won't hold up.
