If, by chance, your motor should burn out, possible, but not very likely, replacement fixed speed motors are very readily available. If necessary, you should be able to quickly replace your motor.
For the record, the 1/4hp fixed speed motor I purchased from Viel shorted out during my conversion process. I have no idea whether the failure was due to something I might have done or a problem in the motor itself.
Apparently Penn State being out of stock with the variable speed motors is not uncommon. Patience is required.

I'm not sure that I can immediately get a Viel-mountable motor in South Korea. And it is possible the other part of Viel will cause problem.
And I found this video.

Fortunately, my Viel is fine, but I'm worried about the condition of the Viel to be ordered in the future.
