The Model W1706 offers blade speeds of 1800 and 3100
FPM (Feet Per Minute). For general woodworking and most
cutting operations, we recommend using the 3100 FPM
speed. Keep in mind, the results from different speeds
are related to the type of blade being used. Whenever
determining blade speed, also choose a type of blade that
is related to your operation. Use the chart below as a
general guide to blade speed:
Type.of.Cutting.Operation Blade.Speed
Most Species of Wood 3100 FPM
Super Dense Hardwood 1800 FPM
Fast/Average Feed Rate 3100 FPM
Requires Slow Feed Rate 1800 FPM
Rough Edges Tolerable 3100 FPM
Requires Smooth Edges 1800 FPM
Quick, Production Cuts 3100 FPM
Detailed, Intricate Cuts 1800 FPM
Speed changes are performed by moving the belt to one
of the two sets of pulleys.
