Anyone aware of a table that shows the RPM's vs. pulley / speed setting value when the speed changer is being used?
For the Forstner bits, set the speed changer up in the low speed pulley arrangement and then dial the speed down as slow as it goes. Here is one chart:[ATTACH]10386[/ATTACH]

within each of the individual 3 pully ranges while maintain the original stock min-max speeds.
As my dad used to tell me... "
Well, that's what you get for thinking!"

It's on page 8 of at least one version of the 10ER user manual.
:D

That's pretty, but I think it is missing some information. I will stick with the other speed charts posted for now. I can understand them.]

I looked for 20 minutes for that correspondance before I posted and couldn't find it. I
knew the answer was there. I thought it might have been on my home PC.
I forgot that I forgot. Thanks!

That's actually jpg's prototype artwork intented to be used for an acid etched brass speed indicator to replace the one on an ER that has a speed changer on it.
What's missing?

What operations are used for the speed setting! i.e. all that stuff in the earlier posts by Rob and Heath!
BTW ANYBODY have an 8 position speed control indicator? I be curious re the dimensions. Or is it like BigFoot(just a myth)?

According to my mental recollections of long past conversations on the 10ER Yahoo group, there is no difference between the 8 position and 5 position speed changers other than the marks on the indicator.

I have had both, there is no difference in the 8 or 5 just the numbers on the label.
