Answer / ramesh kumar k

Electrically... there is no problem... until the rotor

but there is a chance for that... as the lower side bearing
will have to bear all the rotor weight.. and that also the
force acting on the bearing will not be in proper

then position of the rotor will be disturbed...so there
willl not be smooth operation of the motor.....
