Hi...I'm out of town and need to know what the RPM rating of the 3 hp motor is. Not the spindle two speed rpm 7K & 10K, but the actual rpm of the motor. 1800 or 3600 Rpm. If anyone has this machine, could you take a quick look and let me know? I looked through the PDF on the machine and it does not give that info...Thanks for any help.

Thanks
johnny

Every Delta shaper I've seen has a 3500-ish rpm motor. A 1750 rpm motor would require too large a spindle pulley.
