SPEED
For
best
perf
ormance
this tool should run at
8p-
proximately 2700 R.P.M. This
speed
is attained
by
using
a 2 inch diameter motor pulley with
a
Yz
inch
V-groove.
Be sure
to specify the shaft diameter of your
motor
when ordering
the
motor pulley.
BETT
Use
a
standard
%
inch
V-belt. To
determine
the
belt length
place
rhotor and tool

operati.g
posi-
tion and
measure
around the outside
of
the pulleys
with
a steel
tape. Do not
measure
in the
grooves.
