Epson DW621 manual Table a

	Your router is equipped with constant speed cutting—as you load the router, the selected cutting speed
	does not slow down during normal use. The electronic control governs the motor and gives you a
Table A	consistent finish to your work. Only under very heavy loading will the speed of the unit fall below the
	governed speed.
	To set the router speed (from 8,000 rpm to 24,000 rpm) rotate the speed control wheel shown in
	Fig. 3. The higher the number the higher the speed. Consult the table below to help select the proper
	speed for your application.

This table can serve only as a guide, since wood was a living material. Within the same species of timber hardness and density vary. Speed settings are approximate.
