Blade Speed
The Model G0613 is a single speed (314 FPM)
bandsaw. Like the G0614, it has a cutting fluid
system which gives the saw a wider cutting range
than a single speed bandsaw that is not equipped
with a cutting fluid system.
The Model G0614 has a two speed control rang
-
ing from 170 to 341 feet per minute (FPM). The
speed is controlled by a rotary switch and can be
switched while the motor is operating.

NOTICE
On the Model G0614, DO NOT change motor
speed during a cut as this may overload a
series of engaged blade teeth.
