VFD for 5hp 3p Jointer

[davidjamesi]

I have a Sac FS305 jointer with a 5hp 230/430v 3 phase motor in it.
I dont have have 3 phase in my shop, and would like to go the vfd route if possible.

I have been looking at a few vfds for the job but because of price I have been interested in the cheap Chinese huan yang vfds, in particular their 10hp vfd.
Can anyone give some in site on if I will have any issues running the jointer with a 10hp vfd in my shop?
Below is a photo of the motor/jointer for reference
