Upgrades include:

* 750 Watt 1 HP Sealed Brushless Servo Motor.
* Our best 2024 controller.

Motor programming + spindle speeds and Reverse:
* The motor speed can be programmed to operate in any range chosen by the user. Between 200 and 4,500 RPM's.
Note: Settings are limited to 10 RPM intervals.
* The full range of speed (RPM's) can also be controlled with just the speed control knob.
* Speed control programming only requires a few easy steps.
* Reverse is simple, just push the blue latching button.
* Programming includes the ability to set bottom and top RPM range separately. In other words you can program the
system to run the spindle at any speed or range of speeds you choose (see below).
Slowest speed achievable: Motor 200 RPM. (Below 300 is not recommended).
Highest speed: 4,500 RPM.
* Soft start is programmable. This program is very effective in reducing drive belt wear etc.
* Braking strength is also programmable.
* Self-diagnostics with fault code chart and programming instructions.
* Safe turn on system where the speed control knob must be in the full counter clockwise (stop) position before the
motor will restart after a power failure.
