• Use scrap stock similar to your workpiece to find
the right spindle speed and feed rate so that the
resulting cut is smooth and requires little sanding to
finish.
• Reduce spindle speed or increase feed rate if your
workpiece becomes glazed or burned.
• Increase spindle speed or decrease feed rate if your
workpiece shows a rough or washboard surface.
• The cutting edges of large cutters travel faster
than those of smaller cutters at the same spindle
speed (see =`^li\)*). Use slower speeds for larger
cutters.
The spindle speed is changed by adjusting the V-belt
position on the motor and spindle pulleys, as illustrated in
=`^li\)+.

)% Remove the side and rear motor access panels.
*% Loosen the two motor adjustment hex bolts (see
=`^li\),), then slide the motor toward the spindle
assembly% DO NOT remove the bolts completely.
+% Position the V-belt on the pulleys for the selected
speed.
,% Slide the motor and motor mount assembly to the
left until the V-belt is snug, then tighten the bolts.
The amount of V-belt deflection between the pulleys
should be approximately
1
⁄4" when pressed with
moderate pressure.
-% Check to make sure the V-belt is correctly aligned on
both pulleys (refer to Glcc\p8c`^ed\ekon GX^\+'
for detailed instructions).
