Wigus - Not sure if it comes with machine or not.


JPG - It has charts for the SPT's giving letter and speed for softwood and hardwood. There is also general chart that shows Letters and speed for each. Nothing about Power Station.

No it does not.

Does the User's Manual have any pertinent data in it regarding speed?

Dusty - Like I said in my previous post item #791500 has letter to rpm charts. I am sitting here looking at one now.

I purchased a chart a few years back when the Dayton store was open. I believe you may be able to order one from the accessory catalog. It's hanging from my tool cabinet for ready reference.
