W1681 Buffing Assembly
Choosing a Motor
The Shop Fox® W1681 does not come with a motor or elec- trical package. We recommend using a 1725 RPM, 1⁄3 H.P. or larger motor.
Always follow the motor manufacturer's electrical require- ments for the motor that you install.
Configuring Pulleys
The buffing assembly comes with a three step arbor pul- ley. The three progressive diameters are 1", 2" and 3". We recommend using a 1" motor shaft pulley and a 1725 RPM motor for the easiest set up of buffing wheel speeds.
The arbor should never rotate faster than 1725 RPM. When using a 1" pulley on a 1725 RPM motor, in conjunction with the 1" step on the arbor pulley, you will achieve a buffing wheel speed of 1725 RPM. As you move the
Never use a pulley configuration that uses a motor pulley that is larger in diameter than the arbor pulley. This will result in an arbor RPM that is greater than 1725 RPM. An arbor RPM greater than 1725 RPM is not recommended.
