I've been an industrial electrician for my entire life. As long as the duty rating and the load of a Motor are matched to its task it will be fine. If this motor had a continuous duty rating and it were substantially undersized your statement may be true. But even then I have seen motors way undersized for their tasks/duty cycles last for years.

motor is operated via foot pedal which in-turns operates the coil of a motor starter.

Yes. One speed. I found it worked this way the best.

Frosty. Thanks I tried the idler pulley thing and found I didn't like it. So I figured out the pulley ratio to where it hits the most consistent and installed and foot pedal and contactor to activate it.
