Setting Model G0747 Spindle Speed

The Model G0747 has 16 spindle speeds—eight in low motor speed and eight in high motor speed. Setting the spindle speed involves: 1) Selecting the spindle speed range, 2) positioning the V-belt, and 3) setting the spindle switch.

To set the Model G0747 spindle speed:

1.Make sure the spindle is completely stopped.

2.pull the spindle speed range selector knob (see Figure 27) out, position the selector in the high or low position, then release the knob to seat the knob pin in the detent.

Note: If it is difficult to move the range selec- tor, rotate the spindle by hand to help mesh the gears until the selector moves freely.
