    Just be aware that you may have problems running your 60Hz motor on 50Hz.
    Having said that I run a big Dillon Tumbler at the wrong frequency and although the motor gets too hot to touch I have now used it for almost 15 years and it is still going. It runs that hot that it heats up the floor underneath it! Re tumbling speed - slower is better. The faster speeds start to cause peening to the cases.
    I presume the Thumler motor has no cooling fan?
