Disc/belt sander speed?

xxxxx | Posted in General Discussion on January 20, 2007 07:18am

I’m setting up a Delta 12″ disc/6×48″ belt sander I picked up at a garage sale last summer. Of course, no manual. And no motor.

What speed (RPM) should the disc turn? I know all about pulley ratios etc., but I need that number range to plug into the equations.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Paul

2100 rpm for the disc according to the owners manual.------------------------------------

Go to Delta's website. If the machine is not too old, you can probably download the manual.

Have you tried the Delta website? They may have the manual(s) you need.
