DETERMINING BLADE SPEED

The Eastwood Horizontal / Vertical Bandsaw is capable of operating at blade 
speeds of 80, 120 and 200 feet per minute.  The best way to determine if the 
cutting speed is correct is to examine the chips from the cut. The following 
rules apply for examining the cutting chips:

•  Burned heavy chips  =  Reduce Feed and Speed
•  Powder like chips  =  Increase Feed
•  Curled silver chips  =  Ideal Feed and Speed

FIG 7

 provides a good reference to determine the necessary speed  

for material being cut.
