Re: 500s motors on relays?

I knew the fuse for the compressor can be changed, heck its the only spike we use. But this year for our ball pick up we wanted to power the three motors (2 PG71, 1 AM500s) with spikes because there is no need to control the speed because they are in custom gear boxes. So basically it should work. Like I said before if the motor stalls then there is a huge problem.
