If you have never used this type of machine
or equipment before, WE STRONGLY REC-
OMMEND that you read books, trade maga-
zines, or get formal training before begin-
ning any projects. Regardless of the con-
tent in this section, Grizzly Industrial will

Setting RPM
Whether using the vertical or horizontal spindle,
you need to 1) determine the RPM needed to cut
your workpiece, and 2) adjust the V-belts in the
access panel for the spindle you will use for the
operation.
To determine the needed RPM:
1.
Use the table in
Figure 13
to determine the
cutting speed required for the material of your
workpiece.
