Default Question about a dual wound 3ph motor

A friend has acquired an elderly lathe with a dual-wound 3ph motor. It
has 6 wires going in to it, and is intended for 415v 3ph UK supply, but
he only has a normal single phase 240v domestic supply. He has been told
that he cannot use a single to 3ph VFD with dual-wound 3ph motors. Is
this true? If so, why?
