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\p8c`^ed\ekon GX^\+'
for detailed instructions).
