ULR,
Seedler was using a auto transformer to get up to the higher volts before to feed a grid connect inverter. So his output was already less current and more voltage than his original windings.

Flux has indicated "Whatever the cause, the failure you have has all the symptoms of a faulty stator, it is a rewind and you can now change the turns and wire size to replace the nuisance of a transformer and get it running as originally intended. Don't use Chinese bearings in the rebuild either."

Seedler, yes turns/volt gave you the 240v, and the same turns/volt will dictate your new winding number.
