I have a fantastic old Elliot pillar drill
but its 3 phase
I had been using it on a converter that I rescued [brand new] from a skip [I think it may have been a VFD but not sure]
After years of great service the converter started to trip the main earth leakage so I returned to that place, a skip
So... I need to run my 3 phase drill on my 240 single phase supply
Straight forward 3 phase converters are more than the drill is worth
Would this unit below do it?

I have searched and found people just using capacitors but that seems a bit heath robinson
Any advice from the collective appreciated
