More About Speed Changes

The speed chart above is included to help illustrate belt changes necessary to produce a desired speed. Select the proper speed for the job at hand and find it on the speed chart above. Move the belts to the indicated location on the chart. The belt setting in the example above, shows the spindle belt is in the #1 position and the motor belt is in the #7 location. This will produce a speed of 1,650 RPM.
