The black pinion pulley on the front of the motor has two grooves: the

smaller one is Low Speed and should be used primarily. If you increase

the speed to 100% in Low Speed and still need more, switch the motor

belt to the larger High Speed pulley and enjoy a significant increase in

speed! When changing the motor belt from one pulley to the other,

you will need to move the motor mount assembly slightly, to re-align

it under the groove. You can view from the side and determine if the

belt is parallel to the front frame.

Below are examples of alignments for the two-speed pinion.
