Motor Speed Control
The motor speed is controlled by the digital switch
shown in Figure 6–5. This switch has three decades
of control and is used to set the motor RPM as a
percentage of the full rated motor speed. The rated
motor speed is nominally 3500 RPM for the 3 HP
model and 1750 RPM for the 5 HP model.
Mechanical Controls
Height Adjustment
This hand crank (shown in Figure 6–7) sets the press
assembly rest height. Counterclockwise rotation
NOTE
The maximum motor speed setting is
999 which corresponds to 99.9% ( 3HP
= 3496 RPM and 5HP = 1748 RPM).
The lowest practical setting for spin weld-
ing is about 100 which corresponds to
10.0% (3HP = 350 RPM and 5HP = 175
RPM).
A conversion chart is shown in Figure
7-7.
